+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_iterator.h, _string.h, src/string.cpp:
+	Removed useless and even invalid workaround used when
+	_STLP_USE_MSVC6_MEM_T_BUG_WORKAROUND is defined. There is now
+	only one construct check class __construct_checker,
+	__msvc6_construct_checker has been removed.

+
+2007-09-27  Francois Dumont  <dums@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* src/facets_byname.cpp: In collate::do_transform, consider

+
+2007-09-10  Francois Dumont  <dums@users.sourceforge.net>
+

+	Moreover remove use of an intermediate buffer to get result
+	of _Locale_strxfrm.
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: Add tests for collate::transform
+	facet method.
+
+	* src/c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Small modification,
+	_Locale_strxfrm is supposed to return the number of chars
+	required to store the generated sorted key without the trailing
+	zero.
+
+	* src/c_locale_glibc/c_locale_glibc.c, c_locale_glibc2.c: Fix
+	implementation of _Locale_strxfrm, it should never return -1.
+
+2007-09-10  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>

+	* test/unit/rope_test.cpp, stlport/stl/_rope.h: test for
+	bug #1788615 [bug during copy of rope's iterator] and fix;
+	suggested by John Maddock.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_algobase.c: symmetry not required for
+	comparator in case of two different sequences comparison or
+	searching; symmetrical comparator just may not exist;
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_hashtable.h: symmetry not required for
+	comparator in hashtable in case of containers extention;
+	symmetrical comparator just may not exist;
+
+	* test/unit/alg_test.cpp: test for problem above, thanks
+	Oleg Obolenskiy.
+
+2007-09-06  Francois Dumont  <dums@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* test/unit/strstream_buffer_read_test.cpp: Remove useless
+	strdup call that was moreover introducing a memory leak.
+
+2007-09-04  Francois Dumont  <dums@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* src/allocators.cpp: Fix implementation of _S_chunk_dealloc when
+	lock free implementation is not in use. Thanks bug report 1787636
+	from Sergej Zagursky.
+
+2007-08-31  Francois Dumont  <dums@users.sourceforge.net>

+	macro definition before using it thanks bug report 1785679.
+
+	* test/unit/bitset_test.cpp: Bitset::iostream new test to check
+	correct input/output of bitset class.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/gcc.mak: Add -Wundef gcc option when building
+	with gcc under Cygwin MinGW, it is an interesting option to detect
+	macro check errors.
+
+2007-08-26  Francois Dumont  <dums@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/user_config.h, host.h: Moved the administrative
+	_STLP_USE_DEFAULT_FILE_OFFSET macro from user_config.h to host.h.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_gcc.h: Under MinGW we now use C symbols in
+	global namespace. Tests with 4.2.1 gcc version shows that C symbols
+	are not necessarily put in std namespace.
+
+2007-08-23  Francois Dumont  <dums@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_complex.h: As in _iosfwd.h, removed useless
+	_STLP_CLASS_DECLSPEC attribute on complex class declaration.
+
+2007-08-23  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_vector.h: only random access iterators
+	allow operations 'less-than' and distance; for bidirectional
+	iterators removed usage of 'less-than', and for others
+	[like forward and input iterators] removed as usage of 'less-than'
+	as distance; thanks Oleg Obolenskiy for bug report;
+
+	* test/unit/ioiter_test.cpp: test for problem above.
+
+2007-08-18  Francois Dumont  <dums@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_iosfwd.h: Removed useless _STLP_CLASS_DECLSPEC attribute
+	on class declaration. Latest gcc versions are reporting a warning about
+	it.
+
+2007-08-16  Francois Dumont  <dums@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* src/dll_main.cpp: Removed useless _Atomic_swap_struct explicit
+	instantiation, moreover, MSVC 2005 do not support it.
+
+2007-08-15  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* Repository: bump lib version to 5.1.4;
+
+	* stlport/stl/char_traits.h, src/fstream.cpp: use 64-bits
+	file operations calls, if available on system; streamoff is
+	always off64_t, if _LARGEFILE_SOURCE or _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE
+	defined, i.e. if 64-bits file operations present;
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/user_config.h: add _STLP_USE_DEFAULT_FILE_OFFSET,
+	force use off_t for streamoff and appropriate file operations calls;
+	note, that this may lead to problems, for example if _FILE_OFFSET_BITS
+	defined as 64 somewhere in user's code;
+
+	* test/unit/fstream_test.cpp: test 64 bits type for filesize and
+	file offset.
+
+2007-07-22  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* src/fstream.cpp: force use lseek64/mmap64 for HP-UX, if _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE
+	defined; thanks for Michael Klein.
+
+2007-07-17  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_algo.c, stlport/stl/_algobase.c: search, the __tmp and
+	__p1 iterators always point at the same position, hence one of them
+	is redundant;
+
+	* stlport/stl/_algobase.c: in the main-loop of search there are two
+	successive while-loops doing exactly the same thing; one of them is
+	redundant and, since it is inside the main-loop, it slows down
+	the algorithm significantly;
+
+	* stlport/stl/_algo.c, stlport/stl/_algobase.c: in the search the main-loop 
+	condition "while (__first1 != __last1)" is always true and consequently
+	redundant; this is because the initial adn in-loop conditions virtually
+	act as guards and will never let the main-loop condition to fail; since
+	this condition is evaluated in every main-loop iteration, its removal
+	will also improve the performance of the algorithm; thanks for
+	Jim Xochellis for this suggestions.
+
+2007-07-15  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* src/strstream.cpp: "get end" pointer should be initialized
+	to the "begin of get + N" in obsolete strstream; bug #1536503,
+	thanks for Jean-Eric Cuendet;
+
+	* test/unit/strstream_buffer_read_test.cpp, build/test/unit/Makefile.inc:
+	test for bug above; [submitted by Jean-Eric Cuendet].
+
+2007-04-02  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* 5.1.3 released based on revision 2983. STLport-5.1.3 tag created.
+
+2007-03-30  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/lib/configure.bat: Restore TARGET_PROC_SUBTYPE definition
+	to distinguish between ARM architectures.
+
+2007-03-22  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_msvc.h, _deque.h, _bvector.h: Portage from
+	Ulrich Echkardt to EVC 8.
+
+	* doc/README.evc8, README.wince: New documentations about Windows
+	CE and EVC 8 from Ulrich Echkardt.
+
+	* doc/evc_workaround.txt, doc/README.evc3, First file merged to the
+	second one.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_stlport_version.h: Bump patch level to 3.
+
+2007-03-07  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/dll_main.cpp, stlport/stl/_stdexcept_base.h: Change strncpy_s
+	invocation to pass _TRUNCATE parameter rather than number of chars
+	to put in destination string. Default strncpy_s behavior is not to
+	truncate string if necessary but to report the issue throught a handler
+	which lead to an application crash if no handler has been set. Thanks
+	Bronek Kozicki bug report 1674974.
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_traits.h: Add a default constructor declaration
+	in _TpWithState class to make gcc happy when class is instanciated
+	with a class with no default constructor.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_windows.h: Change definition of
+	_STLP_WIN32_VERSION macro. We do not report definition inconsistency
+	between WINVER and _WIN32_VERSION anymore, WINVER is prefered.
+
+2007-03-01  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/bitset_test.cpp: Add test for the to_string member
+	method.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_msvc.h, test/unit/locale_test.cpp: Change
+	MSVC6 configuration that now defines _STLP_NO_EXPLICIT_FUNCTION_TMPL_ARGS.
+	Even if MSVC6 supports explicit specification of function template
+	parameters it do not support the explicit specification for
+	template methods, unit tests are showing this problem.
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_traits.h, _alloc.h: Small change in stateless
+	class detection feature. Introduce _IsStateless helper struct for
+	this purpose even if it can only be used with pure class type and
+	not with build-in types or enum or union. It avoids MSVC8 warnings.
+	
+2007-02-25  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* 5.1.2 released based on revision 2937, tag STLport-5.1.2 created.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_prolog.h, build/Makefiles/gmake/bcc.mak,
+	Patch from Eric Sanford to remove empty base class optimization
+	for Borland compilers.
+
+	* test/unit/vector_test.cpp: Enable VectorTest::ebo test for Borland
+	compilers.
+
+2007-02-22  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_alloc.h: Add a workaround for compilers with buggy
+	empty base class optimization which is used in _STLP_alloc_proxy
+	class.
+
+	* test/unit/vector_test.cpp: New test case VectorTest::ebo to show
+	problem above.
+
+2007-02-21  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Fixed __ConvertDate and
+	__ConvertTime to avoid potential infinite loop (bug report
+	1663604)
+
+2007-02-16  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* STLport 5.1.1 released based on revision 2919. STLport-5.1.1
+	tag created.
+
+2007-02-14  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_intel.h: Configuration fix, Intel compiler
+	before 8.1 have problem with template method specialization. Thanks
+	Dragan Tubic.
+
+2007-02-09  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: Enhance LocaleTest::collate_facet
+	test case to reveal a bug in glibc localization portage.
+
+	* src/c_locale_glibc/c_locale_glibc2.c: Fixed _Locale_strcmp
+	and _Locale_strcmp and _Locale_strwcmp implementation to take
+	into account buffer size, comparison used to always been done on the
+	whole input strings up to the termination character.
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_manips.h, test/unit/mvctor_test.cpp,
+	type_traits_test.cpp: Remove relation between STLport __true_type and
+	__false_type and homonyms ones in libstd++. Add workaround in the 2
+	test suite requiring use of those types.
+
+2007-02-08  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_threads.h, src/locale.cpp: Add missing parenthesis
+	in some macro checks thanks Jan Echternash bug report 1653966.
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: Made LocaleTest::collate_facet test
+	really meaningful even if it requires french locale support for
+	part of it.
+
+2007-02-01  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_solaris.h: __LONG_MAX__ defined on
+	64-bits SPARCs. Thanks Aleksey Sanin.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_sparc_atomic.h, stlport/stl/_threads.h: fixes
+	for modern SPARCs. Thanks Aleksey Sanin.
+
+2007-01-28  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_deque.h: Fix iterator invalidation in erase
+	of an iterator range thanks to Steve Lobasso indirect report (bug
+	1645657).
+
+	* test/unit/deque_test.cpp: New test case for deque erase methods.
+	
+2007-01-19  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_locale.h, src/locale.cpp: Add throw() specification
+	on locale default constructor. Add const qualifier on locale::combine
+	method. Fixed combine implementation to correctly combine
+	*this with other locale instance.
+
+	* src/locale_impl.h: Removed _get_Locale_impl and
+	_copy_Nameless_Locale_impl already defined in stlport/stl/_locale.h.
+
+	* src/locale_impl.cpp: In _Locale_impl::insert add check that we
+	are working on 2 different facet instances before substitution.
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: Add test case for locale::combine
+	method.
+
+2007-01-12  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* c_locale.h, c_locale_dummy.c, c_locale_glibc.c, c_locale_glibc2.c,
+	c_locale_win32.c: Creation of 2 new functions in the localization
+	framework _Locale_init and _Locale_final to allow localization
+	implementations to initialize and release any necessary resources.
+
+	* src/iostream.cpp: Call _Locale_init during io streams initialization
+	and _Locale_final at end.
+
+	* c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Add synchronization for locale
+	lcid look up from name required in multithreaded environment. Two
+	threads instanciating two facet instances from a given name might
+	have collide resulting in an undefined behavior. Critical section
+	used for synchronization is initialized in _Locale_init and freed
+	in _Locale_final.
+
+	* c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Add several fields in
+	_Locale_time struct to avoid use of static buffers in some locale
+	support functions like _Locale_d_t_fmt _Locale_long_d_t_fmt...
+	Moreover time format cannot be truncated anymore.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_windows.h: Introduce _STLP_WIN32_VERSION
+	macro set to WINVER or _WIN32_WINDOWS value depending on what
+	macro is defined.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_threads.h, src/locale.cpp: Add _STLP_WIN32_VERSION
+	checks to detect Windows 95 platform having a special
+	_STLP_ATOMIC_INCREMENT and _STLP_ATOMIC_DECREMENT behavior.

+
+	* stlport/stl/_deque.c: Patch from Kevin Lin to fix iterator
+	returned by insert at position method.
+
+	* test/unit/deque_test.cpp: Add test case for the deque::insert
+	methods.
+
+2006-11-27  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_windows.h: Patch from Michael Fink to check
+	inclusion of winbase.h and windows.h.
+
+2006-11-24  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_fstream.h, src/fstream.cpp, iostream.cpp: Restore
+	computation of the system dependant page size that was hardcoded
+	to 4096. Initialisation code has been moved to a static method
+	called just after Standard iostream initialisation. This code used
+	to be in the _Filebuf_base constructor that might have been called
+	simultaneously by several threads.
+
+2006-11-17  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_macosx.h: Add endianess configuration.
+
+2006-11-16  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+

+	one has been kept to have the test pass.
+
+2006-11-13  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_cwchar.h: Patch from Michael Fink to fix EVC3
+	missing mbstate_t definition.
+
+2006-11-07  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_threads.h: Removed _Atomic_swap_struct export
+	that should be useless as completely inlined. Moreover it was
+	generating a compilation error using MSVC 2005 under Windows
+	64 bits.
+
+2006-10-26  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/codecvt_test.cpp: Removed try/catch blocks not
+	supported by platform missing exception support and moreover
+	useless as we know the code called in the try and this code
+	do not throw (thanks Michael Fink report).
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/targetdirs.mak, lib/clean.mak, app/clean.mak:
+	Complete clobber and distclean rules to really clean all generated
+	stuffs.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/top.mak: Patch from Gary Bartlett to make nmake
+	'all' rule the default rule.
+
+2006-10-25  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/dll_main.cpp: Fix syntax error '>>' rather than '> >' in
+	a _STLP_alloc_proxy explicit instanciation.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_unordered_set.h: Fix template method for the
+	associative container extension, use _KT type rather than key_type.
+
+2006-10-20  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/config: Removed some used macros
+	  _STLP_AUTOMATIC_TYPE_TRAITS
+	  _STLP_UNINITIALIZABLE_PRIVATE
+	  _STLP_STATIC_ARRAY_BUG
+	  _STLP_FULL_ADL_IMPLEMENTED
+
+	* test/unit/codecvt_test.cpp: Ignore test when
+	_STLP_NO_MEMBER_TEMPLATES defined.
+
+2006-10-20  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_cwchar.h: fix HP-UX problem with WCHAR_MIN, WCHAR_MAX
+	[Boris Gubenko].
+
+2006-10-19  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* test/unit/sstream_test.cpp: check bugreport #1580020, not confirmed.
+
+2006-10-17  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_cwchar.h: Restore code to define potentially missing
+	WCHAR_MIN, WCHAR_MAX macros. It used to be in _mbstate_t.h but was
+	missing some native includes to work, in _cwchar.h everything should
+	be fine.
+
+	* test/unit/codecvt_test.cpp: Fix C cast that was losing const
+	qualifier.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_mbstate_t.h: Avoid definition of _STLP_NO_MBSTATE_T when
+	using own mbstate_t definition in _STLP_USE_NO_IOSTREAMS mode. This macro
+	is not supported anymore and should be fixed or removed in future version.
+	Own mbstate_t will be defined even in no iostreams mode.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_evc.h: Now that mbstate_t situation is clear EVC3
+	defines _STLP_NO_NATIVE_MBSTATE_T rather than directly defining it in
+	the config file. 
+
+	* test/unit: Several fixes to build with _STLP_NO_EXTENSIONS and
+	_STLP_NO_ANACHRONISMS.
+
+2006-10-16  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_mbstate_t.h: this header may be included from system
+	stddef.h, without wchar.h---defines of wchar limits isn't good place
+	here [WCHAR_MAX, etc.].
+
+	* test/unit/cwchar.cpp: correct test to hilight problem above.
+
+2006-10-14  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* test/unit/cwchar.cpp, build/test/unit/Makefile.inc: test a few macros
+	related to wchar. Inspired by problems in STLPORT_5_1 and boost::regex.
+
+2006-10-12  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_numpunct.h, src/numpunct.cpp: numpunct facet _M_truename
+	_M_falsename and _M_grouping are not static anymore. This seems useless
+	and moreover was introducing static initialisation order and threading
+	issues.
+
+	* stlport/stl/c_locale.h, _mbstate_t.h, src/c_locale.h, c_locale.c:
+	New mbstate_t policy. When no mbstate_t in native library STLport defines
+	one for its own need in localisation support. This mbstate_t is simply
+	an int defined in global namespace and imported to STLport namespace.
+	Internal localisation framework is nt anymore in STLport namespace but
+	in the global one as it is normaly a C framework.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_bc.h: Defines _STLP_NO_NATIVE_MBSTATE_T rather
+	than internal _STLP_USE_OWN_MBSTATE_T macro.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_evc.h: Add comment for EVC3 users, this platform
+	should define _STLP_NO_NATIVE_MBSTATE_T, but I have not the platform
+	to check...
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/bcc.mak: Do not force anymore built of C sources
+	as C++.
+
+	* test/unit/string_test.cpp, istmit_test.cpp: Fixed macro checks to make
+	tests buildable even when _STLP_NO_IOSTREAMS is defined.
+
+2006-10-09  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/codecvt_test.cpp: Fix use of mbstate_t to make it more
+	portable.
+
+2006-10-06  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_alloc.h, _alloc.c: Fixed __debug_alloc implementation
+	to avoid unjustified assertion about wrong size of buffer to
+	deallocate, thanks David Deakins and verntx on sourceforge.
+
+	* test/unit/vector_test.cpp: Add test for bug above.
+
+	* stlport/wchar.h, stl/_cwchar.h, _istream.h, _limits.h, _locale.h,
+	_threads.h, char_traits.h, type_traits.h, _mbstate_t.h: Fix regression
+	introduce by inclusion of mbstate_t.h in wchar.h. Now _mbstate_t.h is
+	only included at end of wchar.h and _cwchar.h. All places where _mbstate_t.h
+	was used are now including _cwchar.h.
+
+2006-10-05  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/bcc.mak: Use -P compiler to force build of C
+	translation as C++ because of the mbstate_t problem.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/lib/bcc.mak, rules-a.mak: Fix Borland tlib call
+	syntax thanks mbkenny.
+
+	* stlport/stl/wchar.h: Add include of internal _mbstate_t.h file to
+	know STLport status regarding mbstate_t configuration.
+
+	* stlport/stl/c_locale.h: When building platform localisation support
+	as C++ struct declaration are done in STLport namespace.
+
+	* src/c_locale.h: Removed _mbstate_t.h include that is now included
+	from wchar.h or _cwchar.h depending on C or C++ build. Removed #error
+	done too early (see next comment).
+
+	* src/c_locale.c: Add #error statement when building STLport on a platform
+	having real localisation support but no native mbstate_t definition. In this
+	case c_locale.c must be built as a C++ translation unit.
+
+	* src/c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Add Borland workaround to avoid
+	compilation error now that it is build as a C++ translation unit.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_mbstate_t.h: Now that this file is not included from outside
+	world we can include internal _cwchar.h rather than cwchar. Removed
+	a wint_t workaround already existing in _cwchar.h. Removed Borland workaround
+	that was defining mbstate_t when using this file in a C context, it was
+	moreover different than the definition in C++ ! Ad a pure C declaration of
+	mbstate_t when in C.
+
+2006-10-04  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/c_locale.h: Add #error to signal issue when building c_locale.c
+	as a C source when STLport uses its own mbstate_t definition.
+
+	* src/num_put_float.cpp: Modification in Cygwin native lib headers
+	revealed that we were missing ieeefp.h include.
+
+	* src/dll_main.cpp, stlport/stl/_threads.h: Fix export of
+	_Atomic_swap_struct for compilers supporting export of templates.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_hpacc.h: Some cleanup (unknown _STLP_NO_KOENIG_LOOKUP
+	macro) and formating fixes.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_bvector.h: Use _STLP_DECLARE_RANDOM_ACCESS_REVERSE_ITERATORS
+	rather than reproducing the workaround hidden by this macro.
+
+	* test/unit/vector_test.cpp: Add test case to check iterators comparisons.
+
+2006-09-26  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/allocators.cpp: Reorder code blocks to fix build when using
+	_STLP_LEAKS_PEDANTIC.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_num_put.c: Restore __len >= 2 check in
+	__copy_integer_and_fill function. It has been removed on the
+	2006-07-11, at this time STLport always add the base information
+	even for 0 value. This modification has been rollback but not this
+	check.
+
+	* test/unit/num_put_get_test.cpp: Add check for above fix.
+
+2006-09-26  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Add check of code page when
+	specified in locale name.
+
+	* src/c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Add checks in __ConvertDate
+	and _Locale_t_fmt to avoid potential buffer overflow.
+
+	* src/c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Create __GetLocaleInfoUsingACP
+	function that merge a call to GetLocaleInfoA and a call to
+	__ConvertFromACP in one call, the latter function has been removed.
+
+	* src/c_locale.h: Restore _STLP_BEGIN_NAMESPACE when STLport use
+	its own mbstate_t definition which is only available in STLport
+	namespace. Fix Borland regression.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_mbstate_t.h: Replace stl/_cwchar.h include with
+	a cwchar one as this file is included from the outside world when
+	building STLport lib.
+
+2006-09-25  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/codecvt_test.cpp: New test case for the codecvt
+	facet.
+
+	* test/unit/unordered_test.cpp: size_t replace by int to avoid
+	64bits issue warning.
+
+2006-09-21  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/c_locale.h: Patch from Boris Gubenko to avoid
+	direct inclusion of internal header from this header that is
+	access from the outside world when building STLport lib.
+
+2006-09-20  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/allocator_test.cpp: Add new test case for allocation of
+	empty buffer.
+
+	* test/unit/fstream_test.cpp: Use a variable to always point to the same
+	test file and adopt a 'Standard' file name 'test_file.txt'.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_hash_fun.h: Rollback 2006-08-26 Petr modification that
+	was introducing a regression with MSVC compilers.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_fstream.c: First attempt to fix seekoff basic_filebuf
+	implementation when dealing with a codecvt facet having variable
+	encoding. This fix is surely not complete, discussion with Uli is not
+	over.
+
+2006-09-13  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_exception.h: Made a previously general Windows 64 bits
+	workaround specific to the cross compiler coming with PSDK. Thanks
+	Igor Pavlov.
+
+2006-09-11  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_num_put.c: Modification in __do_put_integer to avoid
+	a Hp aCC workaround.
+
+2006-09-11  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_algo.c: search_n with predicate fail in case
+	when subsequence size is 1; thanks Timmie Smith.
+	
+	* test/unit/alg_test.cpp: test for problem.
+
+2006-09-08  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Modification in __GetLCIDFromName
+	to support the Chinese_Taiwan locale. Add of a __GetLCID call when first
+	call to it using non NLS mapping fails.
+
+	* src/c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Change __ParseLocaleString
+	implementation to correctly handle locale with a name having '.' in
+	the language or country part like in 'Chinese_Hong Kong S.A.R..950'.
+
+2006-09-05  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/lib/configure.bat: Fixed comment for --rtl-dynamic and
+	--rtl-static options, impact on macros to uncomment in hosts.h
+	config file was inversed. Thanks Igor Pavlov.
+
+	* build/lib/configure.bat, doc/FAQ, doc/README.msvc,
+	stlport/stl/config/user_config.h, _hpacc.h: Replaced references to
+	_site_config.h by hosts.h. Thanks Igor Pavlov.
+
+2006-08-30  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_cmath.h, _cstdlib.h: Patch from Boris Gubenko, Hp aCC
+	native Standard	lib already define math functions in global namespace.
+	
+	* stlport/stl/_num_put.c: Patch from Boris Gubenko, Hp aCC before version
+	60000 do not consider 'const ptrdiff_t' as const enough to be used in a
+	static buffer declaration.
+
+2006-08-26  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_hashtable.c: allow smaller bucket counts for
+	hashtable. Thanks Herbert Duerr.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_hash_fun.h: use primary types for hasher, not
+	typedefs.
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_manips.h: workaround for __true_type/__false_type
+	for various versions gcc (oh, yes, gcc, it's real pain to detect
+	real version of libstdc++)
+	
+2006-08-10  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stdlib.h: include errno.h for aCC, in case of -mt option in force.
+	This solve errno problem on HP-UX. Thanks Boris Gubenko.
+
+2006-08-09  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_msvc.h: Add _STLP_NORETURN_FUNCTION for MSVC
+	compilers.
+
+	* stlport: Move place of _STLP_FUNCTION_THROWS in function declaration to
+	make msvc compiler happier, gcc do not care about position of this
+	attribute.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_ioserr.h: Fixed specification of STLport configuration file
+	in #error statement.
+
+2006-08-04  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport: Create _STLP_FUNCTION_THROWS depending on _STLP_NORETURN_FUNCTION
+	and also taking into account exception handling configuration.
+
+	* test/unit/alg_test.cpp, istmit_test.cpp: Fixes to make test buildable with
+	native compiler Standard library.
+
+2006-08-03  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>

+
+	* Creation of the 5.1.0 RC2 package.
+
+	* Creation of STLPORT_5_1_RC2 tag
+
+2006-07-25  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_system.h, _windows.h: Fixed MinGW config that also
+	need _windows.h.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_mingw.h: Removed, conflict with platform system
+	header.
+
+2006-07-22  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/config: Add _STLP_PLATFORM and _STLP_COMPILER repectively
+	containing STLport detected platform and compiler names. Some names
+	are surely not accurate and will be fixed but introducing those macros,
+	especially _STLP_COMPILER, help to report detection issue.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_system.h: Change macro checks in order to guaranty
+	that only one platform and only one compiler configuration file will be
+	included.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_cygwin.h, _mingw.h: Added
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/features.h: Removed _STLP_NO_MEMBER_TEMPLATE_CLASSES
+	check when _STLP_USE_TEMPLATE_EXPRESSION is activated.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_gcc.h, features.h: Add _STLP_NORETURN_FUNCTION
+	to signal function not returning, under gcc we use __attribute__((noreturn)). 
+
+	* src/locale_impl.h, stlport/stl/_ios_base.h, _locale.h, _range_errors.h,
+	_rope.h, _string_base.h, _vector.h, debug/_debug.h: Add
+	_STLP_NORETURN_FUNCTION to function that encapsulate raising of exceptions.
+	This help to limit warnings about uninitialized variable before use under
+	gcc.
+
+2006-07-18  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/unordered_test.cpp: Change Key data type from size_t
+	to the more portable int. Fix what seems to be a bad code generation
+	of gcc under Linux 64 bits resulting in a test failure.
+
+2006-07-17  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/alg_test.cpp: New test for find_first_of algo.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/user_config.h, features.h: string template
+	expressions is not a transparent feature, some compilers (VC6)
+	are experimenting ICE with it or some other (gcc) do not accept
+	it when extending string class (see mystring in
+	test/unit/string_test.cpp). So default STLport configuration will
+	be without string template expression, _STLP_DONT_USE_TEMPLATE_EXPRESSION
+	has been replaced by _STLP_USE_TEMPLATE_EXPRESSION.
+
+2006-07-16  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/mvctor_test.cpp: Patch from Michael Fink to avoid a EVC
+	ARM crash.
+
+2006-07-13  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_num_put.c: Rollback modif above, according C printf doc
+	0 value shouldn't show their base.
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_traits.h: Avoid instanciation of _IsCVConvertible if
+	not dealing with pointers. Systematical instanciation was giving
+	compilation error as soon as type had a special memory alignment, such
+	types cannot be pass by value in function calls. Thanks andy2222 from
+	sourceforge.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/evc3.mak, evc4.mak, evc8.mak: Patch from Ulrich
+	Eckhardt to remove commctrl.lib dependency, for the moment evc3 and evc4
+	only contains a note about this potentially useless dependency.
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_string.h: Add missing copy methods in the debug
+	string implementation thanks Patrick Bennett report.
+
+	* test/unit/string_test.cpp: New copy test case for string::copy.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_algo.h: Add missing _STLP_PRIV namespace scope in calls
+	to __find_first_of thanks Patrick Bennett report.
+
+2006-07-11  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_deque.h, _list.h, _slist.h, _string.h, _vector.h:
+	Extend use of _Non_Dbg_iter function in all template methods dealing
+	with iterator range.
+
+	* _num_put.c: Fix to show base in octal or hexadecimal mode even for
+	0 value.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_istream.c: Avoid modification of value to extract in
+	formatted input of short and int when value would overflow.
+
+	* test/unit/num_put_get_test.cpp: Add some tests for above fixes.
+
+	* test/unit/iostream_test.cpp: New tests for general stream
+	manipulations.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_istream.h: Fix ws iostream function, it do not set failbit
+	anymore when stream is in eof state.
+
+	* build/lib/msvc.mak: Generation of config.mak is not mandatory anymore
+	as Intel compiler do not need it for the moment. Only a COMPILER_NAME
+	is mandatory which is given by icl.mak for Intel compilers and by
+	config.mak for Microsoft ones.
+	
+2006-07-10  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_iterator.h: Creation of _Non_Dbg_iter function
+	returning native iterator of special debug iterator with
+	compilers supporting partial template function ordering. Fix
+	a MSVC .Net 2003 issue that seems to be related to a too important
+	template depth.
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_deque.h, _list.h, _slist.h, _string.h, _vector.h:
+	Use new _Non_Dbg_iter function in constructors from iterator
+	range.
+
+2006-07-07  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* build/lib/configure: rollback changes 4 Jul 2006 19:42:55,
+	it's definitely wrong (phrase with quotes ['] requires double
+	quotes ["]).
+
+2006-07-06  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_num_put.c: Small refactoring with introduction
+	of the __do_put_integer function for integer types output. Moreover
+	static buffer size used for formating is now based on output
+	type sizeof.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_ostream.c: Add some assertion before cast to check that
+	no significant digit is lost. Add cast to long in int and short output
+	in order to make type of expression more explicit and correct. This
+	fix the bug report from Geoffrey Bache on sourceforge about output of
+	-1 ont value on 64bits linux.
+
+	* test/unit/floatio_test.cpp: Removed, all code moved to NumPutGetTest
+	test fixture.
+
+	* test/unit/num_put_get_test.cpp: New, contains all tests regarding
+	input/output of numeric values (locale independant).
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: locale independant tests of numeric input/
+	output moved to NumPutGetTest test fixture.
+
+2006-07-04  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_rope.h, _rope.c: Patch from Peter Hercek to fix a
+	missing null termination in rope constructor from a character 
+	and a buffer overrun.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_rope.h: Removed special _S_rounded_up implementation
+	for other types than char and wchar_t. rope implementation is
+	expecting this method to always return a size > to the given size in
+	order to store the terminating null character.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_rope.c: Fix reference counter management to avoid memory
+	leak in _S_destr_concat_char_iter.
+
+2006-06-30  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/num_put.cpp, num_put_float.cpp: Patch from Glen Summers
+	to fix float output using locale with grouping and float value
+	has no decimal.
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: Add some tests showing above bug.
+
+2006-06-29  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_algo.h, _algo.c, _algobase.h, _algobase.c,
+	_hashtable.c: Patch from Andriy Syrovenko to fix implementation
+	of __equal_range, __lower_bound, __upper_bound when dealing with
+	a key whom type is different from the value_type of the iterator.
+
+	* test/unit/equal_test.cpp: Add some tests to show above bug.
+
+2006-06-28  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string_sum_methods.h, debug/_string_sum_methods.h:
+	Small refactoring and simplification of code to avoid a parameter
+	with default value. This fixing an ICE using MSVC6.
+
+	* test/unit/string_test.cpp: Ignore the newly introduce te_tmp
+	test using MSVC6.
+
+2006-06-27  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_list.h: fix bug in list.swap, thanks Viktor Govako.
+
+	* test/unit/list_test.cpp: test for bug above.
+
+2006-06-27  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/lib/configure: Add --with-lib_motif option to grant STLport
+	users the possibility of tweaking the generated libraries name.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/unix/lib.mak: Add code to take into account
+	configured lib motif in generated library name.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/netware/lib.mak: Looks like it needs same
+	defines as the ones in cygming/lib.mak so we simply include this
+	file.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_evc.h: Patch from Michael Fink to fix a
+	compilation error.
+
+	* test/unit/cppunit/cppunit_mini.h: Patch from Michael Fink to
+	avoid unused parameter warning.
+
+2006-06-23  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_pair.h, _bvector.h, config/_evc.h: Patch from
+	Ulrich Eckhardt to extend an evc4 MIPS workaround for eVC8
+	and to generalize little endian configuration.
+
+	* DMC patch from Eric Sanford. Define _STLP_NO_FUNTION_TMPL_PARTIAL_ORDER
+	so that many ignored unit test could be now passed. Also specify
+	Intel 386 instruction set during compilation to limit link errors.
+
+2006-06-22  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_algobase.c: Removed check of equivalent predicate
+	commutativity in find algorithm. In this case, equivalence relation
+	might have been implemented using a member operator == which is
+	not commutative thanks Grisha Spivak report. Other checks that are
+	using an explicit predicate parameter has been kept even if it forces
+	STLport users to implement commutative functor.
+
+	* test/unit/find_test.cpp: Add test to show above issue.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_hashtable.c: Removed equivalent predicate checks
+	that are useless as in _STLP_DEBUG mode the debug wrapping add this
+	check in the functor used to instanciate the non debug hashtable
+	implementation.
+
+2006-06-19  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* STLport 5.1.0 candidate released. STLPORT_5_1 branch created in
+	CVS. Version tagged STLPORT_5_1_RC1.
+
+2006-06-17  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/type_traits_test.cpp, uninitialized_test.cpp: Add
+	explicit public inheritance relation to avoid an ICL warning.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/features.h: Add definition of
+	_STLP_DEBUG_LEVEL to _STLP_STLPORT_DBG_LEVEL when _STLP_DEBUG
+	is defined but _STLP_DEBUG_LEVEL hasn't been set.
+	(thanks an ICL warning report)
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_intel.h: Remove undef of
+	_STLP_NO_UNEXPECTED_EXCEPT_SUPPORT, even if the linker complains
+	about not finding unexpected_exception it looks like it finally do
+	not use it.
+
+	* test/unit/cppunit/test_main.cpp: Filter definition of
+	unexpected_exception when building unit test with static STLport
+	lib.
+
+2006-06-15  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/features.h: Several macro renamed:
+	  - _STLP_LONG_DOUBLE  -> _STLP_LONGEST_FLOAT_TYPE
+	  - __DFL_TMPL_PARAM -> _STLP_DFL_TMPL_PARAM
+	  - __DFL_TYPE_PARAM -> _STLP_DFL_TYPE_PARAM
+	  - __DFL_NON_TYPE_PARAM -> _STLP_DFL_NON_TYPE_PARAM
+	  __DFL_TYPE_ARG removed.
+	
+	* stlport/stl: Add char_traits template parameter in all
+	istreambuf_iterator and ostreambuf_iterator instanciation where it
+	was missing as some compiler might not have supported it.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_time_facets.h, src/locale_impl.cpp: Finaly adopt a
+	specific gcc workaround for definition of _Locale_time_extract_hint
+	as friend of time_get_byname facet. Gcc 2.95 prefers to see a template
+	method otherwise it emits a warning, we want to avoid STLport users
+	to have to disable this warning. Other compilers will use a simple
+	function which seems to be more portable.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_vector.h, _pair.h: Patch from Eric Sanford for a
+	really weird Borland compiler workaround that consists in adding
+	a _Ret typedef in __move_traits or __type_traits traits struct
+	that do not normally contain it.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_bc.h: Borland free compiler do not support
+	STLport container extension of template methods.
+
+2006-06-14  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit: Patch from Ulrich Eckhardt to fix storage of string
+	literals to const char* rather than simple char*.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake: Ulrich Eckhardt patch:
+	  - /MACHINE:IX86 is obsolete and only supported for backward
+	    compatibility as alias for X86. Replaced all cases of IX86
+	    with X86.
+	  - /NODEFAULTLIB:OLDNAMES.lib seems to also be universal so I
+	    moved it to the base, too.
+	  - In order to use main() as entry point under CE, use linker 
+	    option /ENTRY:mainACRTStartup. This was already done for
+	    evc3,4,8 but I moved it to app/evc-common.mak and documented
+	    it.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_cmath.h, config/_evc.h: Uli patch to activate long
+	double support for EVC and use _hypot to implement STLport
+	overload.
+
+	* src/complex.cpp: Remove internal __stlp_hypot that is not necessary
+	anymore now that STLport always define a hypot function (thanks Uli
+	remark).
+
+	* stlport/stl/config: Ulrich Eckhardt VC8/CE patch:
+	  - Adapt the code to construct the paths to the native includes
+	    so that it matches the changed structure. This is currently
+	    only for ARM and might need more work for other targets (x86
+	    works though).
+	  - Make a distinction between the desktop and CE variants concerning
+	    the exception support functions. These now use the same compiler
+	    versions so that can't be used anymore.
+	  - MS' safe string functions are not available under CE - I think,
+	    need to take a closer look at Platform Builder.
+
+	* stlport/stl: Ulrich Eckhardt to adapt STLport to VC8/CE limited
+	native C library.
+
+2006-06-13  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/pointers/_tools.h: Add partial specialization for
+	_IteWrapper helper struct so that when type to store and stored
+	type are identical input iterators are not wrapped. Otherwise input
+	iterators are wrapped to perform necessary casts between pointer type
+	and void*.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_cmath.h: Fixed macros definition used to define all
+	math functions for compilers supporting long double but not having
+	float nor long double C math functions. Thanks Ulrich Eckhardt report.
+	
+2006-06-12  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/set_test.cpp, map_test.cpp: Replace size_t with the
+	more portable int type when possible.
+
+	* stlport/stl/pointers/_tools.h: Check that type to store is a
+	pointer type before modifying predicate type for set container.
+	Wrapping less functor in all cases was making move semantic tests
+	to fail as predicate is not then detected as being the STLport
+	less predicate.
+
+	* stlport/stl: DMC patch from Eric Sanford. DMC do not like __ss
+	variable that is a reserved keyword.
+
+2006-06-11  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake: Patch from Ulrich Eckhardt to use
+	main rather than WinMain for EVC platform.
+
+	* build/test/unit/gcc.mak: Removed redondant macro definition
+	_STLP_USE_STATIC_LIB under cygwin/mingw as those definition
+	are part of base make files.
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_manips.h, _hashtable.h: Eric Sanford workaround
+	for Borland.
+
+2006-06-09  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/cppunit: Patch from Ulrich Eckhardt to
+	  - Removed a few superfluous semicolons.
+	  - Made some constructors explicit.
+	  - Documented the meaning of FileReporter::_myStream.
+	  - Reformatted some things to not exceed 100 chars per
+	    line or use several expressions/statements in one line.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake: Patch from Ulrich Eckhardt to
+	  - adds support for x86 (running on e.g. a PC, so-called CEPC).
+	  - adds support for MIPS or more specifically MIPSII, other MIPS
+	    subtypes can easily be added.
+	  - removes a line "DEFS_COMMON = /D%TARGETCPU%" from the config.mak
+	    file generated for MIPS, the same functionality was moved to the
+	    CPU-specific setups where it is done for other CPUs.
+	  - adds an additional compiler flag so that diagnostics better
+	    match what the VC8 IDE expects.
+
+	* stlport/stl: Patch from Ulrich Eckhardt to
+	  - removes several unnecessary semicolons (typically, when
+	    inlining functions like "void foo() {};" where it in fact doesn't
+	    hurt (due to something I consider an oversight in the standard)
+	    but also doesn't make sense.
+	  - fixes inconsistent indentation in three cases, one with the
+	    preprocessor and two with memberfunction bodies.
+
+	* stlport/stl/pointers/_tools.h: Add missing template method
+	in _CastTraits helper struct used on compiler with no partial
+	template specialization support.
+
+2006-06-08  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/pointers/_tools.h, _set.h: Fix problems reported by
+	gcc that seems to do more check that MSVC on explicit
+	instanciation of templates. Especially fixed problem introduce
+	by STLport extension of set template methods.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/aCC.mak, lib/aCC.mak: Patch from Boris
+	Gubenko for Hp aCC build.
+
+2006-06-07  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/pointers: Restore pointer specialization feature.
+	Major modifications are:
+
+	- vector specialization is done using a qualified void pointer
+	in order to keep optimization oportunities when working on
+	pointers. Using a strict void* was forcing wrapping of iterators
+	in template method making _BothPtrTypes struct helper failing to
+	detect both pointer types.
+
+	- Fixed set specialization thanks to explicit instanciation added
+	in ptrspec_test.cpp.
+
+	- Refactoring of algorithm to find storage type from value type.
+
+2006-06-02  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake: Patch from Ulrich Eckhardt for
+	cleanup. Some script refactoring, wrong OPT_STLDBG_STATIC references
+	replaced by OPT_STATIC_STLDBG.

+	and fix time facet creation when using dummy locale implementation.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_evc.h: Patch from Ulrich Eckhardt to fix
+	endianess definition.
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_hashtable.h: Create a _DbgEqual functor to

+	missing hash_func and key_eq methods in this mode.
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_tree.h: Small refactoring in _DbgCompare
+	functor.
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_traits.h, boost_type_traits.h: Restore boost
+	support.
+
+2006-06-01  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_tree.h, _set.h, _map.h, debug/_tree.h: Removed
+	erase template method extension, might conflict with erase
+	overload taking an iterator. User workaround will be to use
+	erase(find(key)).
+
+	* stlport/stl/_hashtable.h, _map.h, _set.h, _unordered_set.h,
+	_unordered_map.h, debug/_hastable.h: Add template methods extension.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/features.h: Add management of containers template
+	method extension.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_apple.h, _symantec.h: Config update based on
+	config that used to be in _tree.h and _hashtable.h to remove
+	container template methods extensions.
+
+2006-05-31  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_evc.h: Patch from Michael Fink to add ptrdiff_t
+	definition and forbid use of _STLP_DEBUG mode for evc 3/4 on ARM.
+
+	* build: Ulrich Eckhardt patch for Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 for
+	Embedded C++ portage.
+
+2006-05-30  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_traits.h: Rename _Is_Integer<_Tp>::_Integral and
+	_Is_Rational<_Tp>::_Rational in respectively _IsIntegral<_Tp>::_Ret
+	and _IsRational<_Tp>::_Ret for naming convention coherency.
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_traits.h: Add _TrivialNativeTypeCopy helper to
+	handle a number of oportunities to use memcpy/memmove in
+	uninitialized_* or copy algorithms that was not cover by simply
+	checking type_traits has_trivial* features.
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_traits.h, boost_type_traits.h: Refactor _BothPtrType
+	implementation, only one version is necessary as it uses _IsPtr that
+	has a variable implementation depending on config.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_vector.h: Add _DefaultZeroValue specialization for
+	vector container so that a vector of vector is simply initialized
+	using a memset to set everything to 0.
+
+	* test/unit/vector_test.cpp: Add check that previous optimization
+	works as expected.
+
+	* stlport/typeinfo.h: Borland patch from Eric Sanford.
+
+	* DMC patch from Eric Sanford
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_tree.h: Patch from Ulrich Eckhardt to add missing
+	count template method.

+	usage.
+
+2006-05-23  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_deque.h, _deque.c: Change implementation to use
+	_TrivialInit new feature.
+
+	* stlport/stl/boost_type_traits.h: Add _TrivialInit implementation
+	using boost type traits.
+
+2006-05-22  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_traits.h: Add _TrivialInit helper struct to
+	report if a type is trivial to initialize or not that is to say
+	if the type has a trivial default constructor. Handle native types
+	exception that are consider as having a trivial default constructor
+	but that required a 0 initialization on explicit constructor
+	call.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_uninitialize.h: Add a helper function
+	__uninitialize_init that result in a no-op if _TrivialInit returns
+	__true_type.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_vector.h: Modification of vector constructor to
+	destect when it is called without an explicit default value so
+	that we can call __uninitialized_init.
+
+	* test/unit/uninitialized_test.cpp: Add test to check correct
+	detection of useless initialization.
+
+2006-05-19  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/uninitialized_test.cpp: Patch from Ulrich Eckhardt
+	to replace vector instance in uninitialized_copy_test by static
+	array so that we are always working on pointers iterator.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string_operators.h: Patch from Ulrich Eckhardt to
+	add missing != operators when using string template expression.
+
+	* stlport/stl/ctype.h, config/_evc.h, _msvc.h, _windows.h,
+	features.h: Patch from Michael Fink for evc3/4 platform.
+
+	* test/unit/mvctor_test.cpp: Add of a specific Borland test case
+	to report what seems to be a compiler bug but that is only
+	revealed when using STLport.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_tree.h, _set.h, _map.h, debug/_tree.h,
+	pointer/_set.h: Generalized already existing extension of template
+	find method on associative containers to all look up methods:
+	count, erase, lower_bound, upper_bound, equal_range.
+
+	* test/unit/set_test.cpp: Add test case for set template methods
+	extension.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_tree.c, debug/_tree.h: Removed debug check from
+	non debug implementation, now debug check is injected in tree
+	implementation from the tree debug implementation thanks to
+	a wrapping of the predicate.
+
+2006-05-18  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/c_locale.h: Fix declaration of _Locale_name_hint
+	struct so that compilers do not think that this struct is in
+	the STLport namespace because of friend declaration.
+
+2006-05-17  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_abbrevs.h: Update list of abbreviations.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_hashtable.c: Removed _Node macro and fixed
+	macros defined when _STLP_NESTED_TYPE_PARAM_BUG is defined.
+
+2006-05-16  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/type_traits_test.cpp: Add test case to check
+	_TrivialUCopy helper metaprogramming class behavior.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_vector.h, _vector.c: Replaced _TrivialAss by
+	_TrivialCopy and _TrivialUCpy by _TrivialUCopy for coherency
+	with type_traits.h names.
+
+	* test/unit/type_traits_test.cpp: Add small test for correct
+	impact of trivial_destructor meta info in vector implementation.
+
+	* build/lib/configure.bat: Add comment to explain weird TARGETCPU
+	check.
+
+2006-05-15  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_hashtable.h, _list.h, _deque.h, _slist.h,
+	_string.h, _vector.h, _move_construct_fwk.h, _rope.h:
+	Fix impact of _STLP_NO_MOVE_SEMANTIC macro on library. Now,
+	if defined, no move will ever happen.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_uninitialized.h: Simplified __uninitialized_copy_fill
+	prototype, only one type of iterator is allowed. It also fix
+	implementation as this one was not taking into account both
+	iterator value_type to consider if the operation was trivial
+	or not.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_uninitialized.h: Major code review. Remove use of
+	_OKToMemcpy, remove dependency on std::copy of std::fill, all
+	implementation is now similar to the one of std::copy algorithms
+	except that uninitialized algo are using
+	__type_traits::has_trivial_copy_constructor meta information and
+	copy __type_traits::has_trivial_assign_operator.
+
+	* test/unit/deque_test.cpp, vector_test.cpp: New test case for
+	over optimization problem.
+
+	* test/unit/map_test.cpp, locale_test.cpp, list_test.cpp, slist_test.cpp,
+	unordered_test.cpp, fstream_test.cpp, stack_allocator.h: Fixed
+	implementation to build with _STLP_NO_MEMBER_TEMPLATES.
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_vector.h, _list.h: Add non template assign
+	methods used when _STLP_NO_MEMBER_TEMPLATES is defined.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_slist.c: Fixed sort _Slist_sort implementation, now
+	call _Slist_merge template function rather than slist::merge method
+	as this method do not take any predicate when _STLP_NO_MEMBER_TEMPLATES
+	is defined.
+
+	* build/test/unit/Makefile.inc, test/unit/uninitialized_test.cpp:
+	New test for uninitialized_copy algo.
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_traits.h: OKToMemCpy rename in _TrivialCopy for
+	coherency with _TrivialUCopy. Moreover, thanks to refactoring in
+	uninitialized_* algorithms, _TrivialUCopy now only takes into account
+	__type_traits::has_trivial_copy_constructor meta information and
+	not has_trivial_assign_operator.
+
+	* stlport/stl/boost_type_traits.h: Fixed to reflect STLport
+	__type_traits modifications.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_uninitialized.h: Major code review proposed by
+	Ulrich Eckhardt
+
+	* stlport/stl/_algobase.h, _deque.h, _deque.c, _vector.h, _vector.c,
+	_rope.h, _rope.c, _string.h, _string.c: Impact of previous point.
+
+2006-05-05  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/iter_test.cpp: Removed unreachable code.
+
+	* Introduction of a new configuration macro _STLP_MSVC_LIB
+
+	This macro is set to _MSC_VER value but can be overloaded to
+	an other value. First intension was to make STLport more flexible
+	for Intel C++ compiler. This compiler comes without any native
+	lib and you have to bind it to a MSVC install, Intel compiler
+	generate MSVC compatible code so that MSVC linker can correctly
+	generate final exe or dll. To mimic MSVC compiler ICL also defines
+	_MSC_VER. The problem is that definition of this macro is based
+	on a compiler option and do not necessarily reflect the MSVC lib
+	version ICL is binded to. Fortunately the compiler options
+	responsible of _MSC_VER definition (/Qvc6, /Qvc7...) is also
+	responsible of name mangling so asking for a MSVC compiler
+	compatibility different than the library ICL is binded to is
+	not easy. But _STLP_MSVC_LIB has been kept as it makes STLport
+	configuration more clean. Now MSVC compiler version is given
+	by _STLP_MSVC macro and library version by _STLP_MSVC_LIB.
+	All occurences of _MSC_VER in STLport code has been replaced
+	by those macros.
+
+	* _STLP_USE_SECURIZED_BUF_FUNCTIONS replaced by the more
+	intuitive _STLP_USE_SAFE_STRING_FUNCTIONS.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_msvc.h: Major refactoring to isolate
+	MSVC compiler config and MSVC native library config.
+	
+2006-05-04  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/lib/configure.bat: And information to the --lib-motif
+	option as advised by Ulrich Eckhardt. Add option parameter and
+	relation with _STLP_LIB_NAME_MOTIF.

+	constructor and assignment operator.
+
+	* src/c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Made
+	_Locale_extract_category_name locale function static.
+
+	* src/vc_warning_disable.h renamed in warning_disable.h as it is
+	used by other compilers too (ICL)
+
+	* build/lib/msvc.mak, evc.mak: Removed forced inclusion of
+	vc_warning_disable.h file. Now this file is included from
+	stlport_prefix.h.
+
+	* build/test/unit/msvc.mak, evc.mak: Replace vc_warning_disable.h
+	reference by warning_disable.h.
+

+	removed some ICL specific configuration.
+
+	* src/lock_free_slist.h: Removed 'no return statement' warning
+	for ICL too.
+
+	* src/message_facets.h: Made _Message_impl copy constructor and
+	assignment operator private to avoid warning as _M_cat member
+	data has private copy constructor and assignment operator too.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_cstdlib.h: Made additional definition of
+	div(long, long) based on native library (_MSC_VER) rather than on
+	compiler used (_STLP_MSVC).
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_intel.h: Fix Intel C++ 9.0 compiler
+	configuration with and without /Qvc6 option.
+
+	* src/dll_main.cpp: Add std::unexpected implementation that ICL
+	need but that is not part of MSVC6 native lib library.
+
+	* test/unit/test_main.cpp: Add std::unexpected implementation that
+	ICL need but that is not part of MSVC6 native lib library.
+
+2006-04-30  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_alloc.h: Moved __type_traits specialization for

+	report ignored tests.
+
+	* test/unit/mvctor_test.cpp: Fix tests to build it with native
+	MSVC 2005 Standard library. Looks like this implementation do

+	of STLport using the MSVC /clr option.
+

+	warning for __do_handle_exceptions local variable.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_deque.h: Ditto with __cur_node variable in
+	_M_range_initialize method.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_deque.c: Ditto with __cur in _M_fill_initialize.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_auto_link.h: Removed auto link feature when
+	building a C translation unit thanks Michael Fink.
+
+	* src/time_facets.cpp: Add missing calling convention on
+	__write_formatted_time internal function.
+
+2006-04-24  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/cppunit/cppunit_mini.h: Limit scope of try/catch block to

+	* src/acquire_release.h, c_locale.h, locale.cpp,
+	locale_catalog.cpp, locale_impl.cpp, locale_impl.h,
+	message_facets.h, facets_byname.cpp: Add a locale hint feature
+	to improve locale construction from name. This is used by
+	Win32 locale implementation that broadcast the locale lcid
+	thanks to this hint. With this modification, LocaleTest fixture
+	runs 5 times faster.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_collate.h, _ctype.h, _monetary.h, _numpunct.h,
+	_time_facets.h: Add _Locale_extract_hint function as friend
+	to some locale facet in order to access locale implementation
+	specific structure and potentially extract the hint.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_codecvt.h, _collate.h, _ctype.h, _messages_facets.h,
+	_monetary.h, _numpunct.h, _time_facets.h: Add _Locale_name_hint pointer
+	parameter to facet by name constructor.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/lib/clean.mak, rules-so.mak, rules-install-so.mak:
+	Based on Dr Dobb's Richard Grimes article, change management of
+	manifest file for STLport shared library. According this article
+	.manifest file is not taken into account for a library, only .exe one is.
+	Solution is to integrate .manifest file into the .dll as an unmanaged
+	ressource with id 2. We now do so thanks to the mt manifest tool.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_pair.h: Remove __move_traits partial specialization for
+	Borland free compiler, it was introducing weird compilation error.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_move_construct_fwk.h: Add a helper struct for __move_traits

+
+	* stlport/stl/config/host.h, compat.h, debug/_debug.c: Removed
+	_STLP_NO_DEBUG_EXCEPTIONS configuration macro that is similar
+	to the new _STLP_DEBUG_MODE_THROWS except that new thrown macro
+	is catchable (std::runtime_error exception) and contained message
+	is more explicit.
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_tree.h: Add find template method STLport
+	extension to the debug version of binary tree thanks Mike Flamming.
+
+2006-04-11  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/complex_io_w.cpp: Removed, content moved to src/complex_io.cpp
+	to avoid build of an empty translation unit that can generate linker
+	warning (noticed with MSVC 2005 express)
+
+	* build/lib/Makefile.inc: Updated before of above modification.
+
+	* test/unit: Ignore many tests rather than hide it depending on
+	build configuration.

+	introduction of monitoring feature.
+
+2006-04-10  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/cppunit/cppunit_timer.h, test_main.cpp, file_reporter.h:
+	Add -m option to activate monitoring of unit tests. This option add
+	timing for each test and a global timing information. Timer class has
+	been created for Win32 API.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_bitset.h: Hide STLport bitset extensions _Find_first
+	and _Find_next.
+
+	* test/unit/bitset_test.cpp: Adapt tests to previous modification.

+	to limit header dependencies. Also add include of stl/_uninitialized.h.
+
+	* test/unit/fstream_test.cpp: Add missing memory include.
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: Ditto.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_queue.h, _string.h, _rope.h, debug/_tree.h: Replace
+	stl/_function.h include with the smaller _function_base.h include.
+	
+2006-04-07  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_new.h: Fixed management of _STLP_NO_BAD_ALLOC
+	and _STLP_NEW_DONT_THROW_BAD_ALLOC macros.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_dm.h: Change DMC configuration, use STLport
+	own namespace rather than std so that STLport can check config.
+
+	* stlport/typeinfo.h: Fix DMC configuration now that it uses own
+	STLport namespace.
+
+2006-04-05  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_tree.h, _list.h: Fixed swap implementation to
+	correctly swap allocators instance. Moreover list swap implementation
+	was wrong since list splice has been modified to correctly handled

+
+	* test/unit/slist_test.cpp, list_test.cpp, set_test.cpp: Add tests for
+	above fix.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_deque.h: Fix swap method as deque has 2 allocator

+	equivalent allocator instances even if there are still other assertions
+	in the implementation.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_function_base.h: Add swap method for less functor if

+	thanks Eric Sanford.
+
+	* test/unit/type_traits_test.cpp: Borland workaround for is_convertible

+	relative to native headers access that used to be in features.h.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_evc.h, _como.h: Add include of _native_headers.h

+
+	* stlport/stl/config/features.h: Use _native_headers.h.
+

+	* stlport/new, stl/_new.h: Moved all STLport code in _new.h and
+	modified new header so that it forwards include to native new
+	when include comes from inside STLport.
+
+	* cppunit/file_reporter.h, cppunit_mini.h: Change support of
+	CPPUNIT_CHECK macro, only report error once for all failures
+	in a single test case.
+
+2006-03-28  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_prolog.h: Fix macro check before inclusion of
+	features.h.
+
+	* stlport/stl/char_traits.h: Fixed include of cstddef, in STLport
+	code, Standard headers should never be included directly, their

+
+	* stlport/stl/type_traits.h, type_manip.h: Patch from Eric Sanford
+	for Borland compiler to fix _OKToMemCpy feature.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_alloc.h: Replace swap function for _STLP_alloc_proxy

+
+	* stlport/stl/_function_base.h, _function.h: Move as many functor as

+	segregation between <functional> and <algorithm> Standard headers.
+
+	* test/unit: Add many missing references to <functional> header.

+	* test/unit: Made unit tests available for build without STLport, this
+	will be a good way to compare Standard library implementations.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string_base.h: Remove additional space for terminating
+	null character, it was actually already reserved in the return
+	expression.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string.h: Restored basic_string capacity implementation
+	that do not depend on use of the short string optimization or not. It
+	might be hiding a real issue somewhere else in code even if unit tests
+	are not showing any problem.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_alloc.h: Add swap overload for _STLP_alloc_proxy class
+	in order to correctly call swap on the maybe rebound allocator as user
+	that implement an allocator with a state might have implement a
+	special swap function for it to correctly handle STL containers swap
+	operation.
+
+2006-03-24  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/lib/configure.bat: Removed script for defining INCLUDE

+
+	* stlport/stl/_string.c: a bit code clean
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string_base.h: max_size should keep space for

+
+2006-03-16  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_evc.h, _msvc.h: Add some condition for

+
+2006-03-15  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_system.h, _msvc.h, _evc.h: move _STLP_MSVC

+2006-03-14  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/allocators.cpp: Fixed thread safety issue in

+	environment than gdb under cygwin...
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_system.h: Patch from Michael Fink to add
+	missing _STLP_MSVC define for evc++ compilers.
+
+2006-03-13  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>

+	in file.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_alloc.h: Add a new STLport extension to the
+	std::allocator class: allocate(size_type, size_type&). This new
+	overload of allocate returns in an output parameter, the real
+	size of the allocated buffer that can be larger than the requested
+	one. _STLP_alloc_proxy expose this new overload only for the
+	STLport allocator and not for user defined allocators.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_vector.h, _vector.c, _string.h, _string.c: Use of the
+	allocate overload extension method to set end of storage reference
+	to the real memory block end rather than to the requested one.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_alloc.c: Adapt __debug_alloc::allocate method in order
+	to return the real allocated memory block. Also add check on computed
+	__real_n to allocate as it might roll on size_t and hide a case that
+	should result in a bad_alloc exception.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_threads.h, src/allocators.cpp: Add WINVER macro
+	check in addition to _WIN32_VERSION, according PSDK documentation
+	WINVER is more generaly used accross different Windows platforms.
+
+	* test/unit/string_test.cpp: Add constructor test case to correctly
+	handle build of a string with string::max_size elements which should
+	result in a bad_alloc exception. Idem for reserve method.

+	result in __malloc_alloc implementation to throw an exception when
+	result is NULL.

+
+2006-02-15  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>

+	in FileReporter copy constructor definition.
+
+2006-02-10  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* src/num_put_float.cpp: remove usage of static buffers
+	[potential vulnerabilities]; directly use __iostring instead.
+
+	* test/unit/floatio_test.cpp: test for fixed float output;
+	cases when fixed float fail on Linux and Solaris, related
+	with fcvt_r and fconvert calls respectivly commented.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/gcc.mak: workaround for bug in make 3.79.1
+	on Solaris [not pass -D_STLP_DEBUG to CPPFLAGS].
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string.h: rollback 2006-01-25.
+
+2006-02-08  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles: Removed all references to BUILD=r in parameters
+	to ressource compiler in release as there is no more 'r' appended
+	to the library name in this mode.
+
+	* src/stlport.rc: Fix support for Borland and add check for BUILD

+	it do not have to be a template class anymore.
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_debug.c: Implement
+	__stl_debug_engine<_Dummy>::_Message even when specifying
+	_STLP_DEBUG_MESSAGE in order to have explicit instanciation correctly
+	generated.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_heap.c, _tree.c, _list.c, _slist.c: Add strict
+	weak ordering checks.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_debug.h, _debug.c: Add new error type: bad equivalent
+	functor that has to be used in hash container implementation or in
+	algorithm like find. Check for this functor is:
+	if (pred(a, b)) assert(pred(b, a)
+
+	* stlport/stl/_hashtable.c: Add equivalent functor checks.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_debug.h, _debug.c: Check _STLP_DEBUG_MODE_THROW in
+	__debug_engine::_Message method. Now thrown exception will contain

+	implementation.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_algo.c, debug/_debug.h, _debug.c: Add check for
+	bad predicate in safe STL mode (_STLP_DEBUG).
+

+	_num_get.c, _num_put.c, _time_facets.c: Borland workaround for
+	locale facet id instanciation that were duplicated. Now static
+	instances are no more defined from .c files but only from the
+	.cpp and only for facets that are implemented by STLport. Users

+	defined the static instance themself in their translation units.
+	
+	* stlport/stl/type_manips.h: Fixed _UnCVType wrong implementation
+	reported by Digital Mars compiler.
+
+	* stlport/stl/boost_type_traits.h: Fixed _OKMemCpy implementation

+	was useless and producing a warning.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/cygming/rules-so.mak: Workaround for DMC
+	linker weird behavior. Linker create the dll file even if link
+	fail which confuse make dependency feature. As lib file is not
+	generated, dll now depends on lib that depends on build files.

+	list warning, used in rope implementation.
+
+	* build/lib/configure: Fix --with-boost interpretation.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/dmc.mak: Use dm_link command for linker rather
+	than link that is rather the MSVC like wrapper.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/cygming/targetsys.mak: Ditto for dm_lib rather
+	than lib command.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/app/rules.mak: Use same linker command invocation
+	for DMC and Borland.
+
+	* doc/README.borland: Documentation update about limitation on locale
+	facets id instanciation.
+
+	* stlport/stdlib.h: DMC, like Borland and EVC, defines errno macro

+
+	* stlport/stl/config/user_config.h, features.h: Inverse
+	_STLP_FORCE_STRING_TERMINATION macro switch in
+	_STLP_DONT_FORCE_STRING_TERMINATION. This is less dangerous for

+
+	* stlport/stl/_string.h: When _STLP_FORCE_STRING_TERMINATION
+	is defined operator[] implementation is simpler.
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_string.h: Based implementation of []
+	operator on the non STL safe internal instance, avoid duplication
+	of check for access to the element of index size().
+
+	* test/unit/fstream_test.cpp: Add custom facet id definition for

+
+2006-01-18  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_ostream.h, _ostream.c: Use size_t rather than

+	warning.
+
+	* test/unit/string_test.cpp: Fixed unused variable warning.
+
+2006-01-17  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* src/c_locale_glibc/c_locale_glibc2.c: really implemented
+	getting default locale categories from environment; replace
+	a few strcpy by strncpy to protect from possible buffer overflow
+	attack.
+	
+	* stlport/new.h, stlport/stl/_typeinfo.h: few workarounds for ICC 9
+	[suggested by Lim Hwan Cheol].
+
+2006-01-14  Eric Sanford  <...@comp...>
+

+
+	* src/dll_main.cpp: Remove now invalid template explicit
+	instanciation of _Bs_G that is no more a template.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_detect_dll_or_lib.h: When no iostreams mode,

+
+	* stlport/stl/_limits.c, _hashtable.c: Add _STLP_CALL specification
+	to _LimG and _Stl_prime methods implementation.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_limits.c: Put _Stl_prime methods implementation in
+	a _STLP_EXPOSE_GLOBALS_IMPLEMENTATION macro check block. Those

+
+	* stlport/stl/_num_put.h, _num_get.h, _time_facets.h, _ios.h,
+	_ios_base.h: Cleanup Borland workaround now useless.

+
+2006-01-12  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_rope.h, stlport/stl/_rope.c: pass CharConsumer
+	via reference, to take into account CharConsumer modifications.
+	This has relation to find(char) in rope. Thanks Cristian Vlasceanu.
+
+	* test/unit/rope_test.cpp: test for fixed bug above.
+
+2006-01-11  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/bitset.cpp: Add stlport_prefix.h include.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_bitset.h: Add an inline implementation for _S_count
+	and _S_first_one static methods for _STLP_NO_IOSTREAMS mode. Should
+	be slower than version coming with library but avoid link trouble.
+
+2006-01-11  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_bitset.h, stlport/stl/_bitset.c, src/bitset.cpp:
+	make helper structure _Bs_G non-template [it used only as instance
+	with unused bool argument only], and put static tables into library
+	to avoid possible static instances duplication.
+
+	* build/lib/Makefile.inc: idem.
+
+2006-01-10  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_traits.h, config/_msvc.h, _mwerks.h: Integrate
+	intrinsic type traits support for Visual 2005 and Metrowerk. Code
+	based on boost library information and not tested for Metrowerk.
+
+	* test/unit/bind_test.cpp: Fix BindTest::bind2nd3 test case, had
+	never been used.
+
+	* stlport/stl/boost_type_traits.h: Change boost type traits wrapping
+	implementation to use meta programming operation on types rather
+	than on numerical constant, MSVC6 prefer it.
+
+	* build/test/unit/msvc.mak: Systematically add /Zm800 for MSVC
+	compilers, useful in a number of case and transparent in others.
+
+	* test/unit/type_traits_test.cpp: Add is_POD test case. Add dummy
+	constructors, assignment operator and destructor to any_type struct
+	to make the tests pass even with compilers having intrinsic type
+	traits support.
+ 
+2006-01-09  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug: Fix move constructor to keep the container
+	move constructor complete. When STLport user do no require no
+	extension or Standard debug safe mode, iterators are also move
+	with the container contents.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_list.h, _slist.h, _tree.h: Made iterator struct
+	constructor from base class pointer explicit to forbid expression
+	like: list.begin() == 0.
+
+	* stlport/stl/pointers/_slist.h, _list.h, _set.h: Fix implementation
+	that was using former implicit contructor from pointer to base class.
+
+	* src/c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Fix implementation for
+	compilers coming with a native lib implementing secure C functions
+	like strncpy_s.
+
+	* src/iostream.cpp: Hide I/O streams declaration when defining
+	them when compiler has no support for removing I/O streams
+	from static global variable initialization segment. Avoid the
+	stdio_istreambuf using directive when we do not use STLport
+	private namespace.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_rope.h, _rope.c: Use internal, not _STLP_NO_EXTENSIONS
+	dependant functions for implementation.
+
+	* stlport/rope, hash_map, hash_set: Add _STLP_NO_EXTENSIONS check
+	that generate a #error if defined as those headers are STLport
+	extensions.
+
+	* stlport/_uninitialized.h: Add __uninitialized_copy_n no dependant
+	against _STLP_NO_EXTENSIONS for rope implementation.
+
+	* test/unit: Made tests ok to build even when _STLP_NO_EXTENSIONS or
+	_STLP_NO_ANACHONISM or _STLP_NO_CUSTOM_IO is defined.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_num_put.h, _num_get.h: Fix definition scope of

+	is defined.
+
+	* stlport/stl/boost_type_traits.h: Fixed _IsRef implementation based
+	on boost type traits feature.
+
+	* build/nmake/extern.mak, lib/msvc.mak, test/unit/msvc.mak,

+	contains it.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_bc.h, test/unit/floatio_test.cpp, cmath_test.cpp,
+	limit_test.cpp: Borland patch from Eric Sanford.

+	implementation when _STLP_NO_IOSTREAMS is defined or when
+	securized C function strcpy_s exists.
+
+	* stlport/stl/pointers/_set.h: Fixed implementation as _Identity
+	is now in private namespace and const_reverse_* functions must
+	return const_reverse_* iterators and not simply reverse_*.
+
+	* test/unit/bcompos_test.cpp, bind_test.cpp: Made the tests usable
+	when _STLP_NO_EXTENSIONS is defined.
+
+	* build/lib/configure.bat: Fix name of msvc8 compiler.
+
+	* test/unit/mfunptr_test.cpp: Ignore find test when no class
+	partial template specialization rather than commenting it.
+
+	* test/unit/type_traits_test.cpp: Ditto for reference_type test.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/top.mak: Fixed install-shared definition.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/gcc.mak: Add _STLP_USE_STATIC_LIB when

+
+2006-01-04  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/acquire_release.h: New file, expose __acquire_*
+	functions used in different translation unit.
+
+	* src/num_put.h: Removed, content moved to num_put.cpp that
+	was the only translation unit using exposed functions.
+
+	* src/*: Build with Intel C++ 9 compiler reveal that many
+	static specification was missing.
+
+	* src/ctype.cpp: Filter out _WCharIndexT specialization for
+	Intel compiler that consider wchar_t as unsigned, fixed a
+	warning.
+
+	* _STLP_STATIC_ASSERT is now called without trailing ';' that
+	is already in the macro definition.
+
+	* src/*: Removed reference to _SgI namespace replaced by the
+	STLport private namespace.
+
+	* src/iostream.cpp: Add iostream include to expose cout, cin, cerr
+	definition to declaration.
+
+2006-01-03  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/_gcc.h: Force use of new/delete based
+	allocator under Cygwin/MinGW, default node allocator has
+	problem because __node_allocator static datas are sometimes
+	duplicated in a dll context.
+
+2006-01-01  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/lib/gcc.mak, stlport/stl/config/_gcc.h:
+	Change way of building dll with Cygwin/MinGW. No more export of
+	all symbols, we use dllexport specification, makes import lib
+	really shorter and dll too. Moreover use of the
+	enable-auto-image-base linker option to make load of dll faster.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_time_facets.c, _num_put.c, _num_get.c, _monetary.c,
+	debug/_debug.c: Adapt existing Cygwin/MinGW workaround for new
+	way of generating dlls.

+
+2005-12-27  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string_io.c: Generalized use of _STLP_STATIC_ASSERT

+
+	* stlport/stl/_construct.h: Removed now useless Borland workaround.
+
+	* src/stdio_streambuf.cpp: Ditto.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_alloc.h: Now allocator is tagged as an STLport class
+	even without partial template specialization support. This is
+	necessary because type_traits is specialized for allocator<char>,
+	allocator<wchar_t> and allocator<void*> when partial template
+	specialization is not available.
+
+	* test/unit/bitset_test.cpp: Add tests for the STLport
+	bitset::_Find_first extension.
+
+2005-12-27  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>

+
+	* stlport/stl_user_config.h, stlport/stl/_config.h: moved 
+	to stlport/stl/config catalog and renamed.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_config_compat.h, stlport/stl/_site_config.h: ditto.
+
+	* stlport/config: headers moved to stlport/stl/config catalog,

+
+	* stlport/stl/_prolog.h, stlport/stl/_epilog.h, src/stlport_prefix.h:
+	reflect changes in configuration files.

+2005-12-16  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_rope.h: Moved overload of __identity_element for
+	_Rope_Concat_fn in STLport private namespace where orginal function
+	declaration is. Also moved _Rope_Concat_fn at the same time, much more
+	many elements of _rope.h should be moved to this namespace...
+
+	* stlport/stl/_monetary.c: Change implementation of __money_do_put for
+	Borland compiler, looks like this compiler do not like ternary operator.
+
+	* src/c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Replace check of category in
+	__Extract_locale_name from > LC_ALL by != LC_ALL, there is no reason
+	for LC_ALL to be upper or lower to all other categories.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/cygming/rules-so.mak: Segregate different
+	compilers linker calls and add reference to START_OBJ in Borland
+	linker invocation.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/lib/rules-a.mak, cygming/targetsys.mak: Borland
+	archiver add option is now '+', before being invocated archive is always
+	deleted to avoid warnings because the Borland archiver do not have a
+	real add or replace module option.
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_traits.h: Fix for compiler simulating partial
+	template specialization (VC6)
+
+	* test/eh/test_rope.cpp: Removed rope test for Borland.

+
+2005-12-14  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/cppunit/cppunit_mini.h, file_reporter.h: Add ignore
+	test feature, now tests should be ignored rather than commented.
+	2 new macros for that CPPUNIT_IGNORE to add in tests declaration,
+	all test following this macro won't be run; CPPUNIT_STOP_IGNORE
+	optional macro to stop ignoring tests.
+
+	* test/unit/fstream_test.cpp: Ignore custom_facet test when not
+	supported rather than comment it.
+
+	* test/unit/hash_test.cpp: Ignore hmap1 test for Borland and Digital
+	Mars compilers, looks like rope class is too complicated for those
+	compilers.
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: Ignore locale_by_name test for compiler
+	without exceptions support. Ignore money facet tests for Borland.
+
+	* test/unit/mvctor_test.cpp, rope_test.cpp: Some tests ignored
+	depending on various configuration settings.
+
+	* test/unit/type_traits.cpp: Add test for _IsSTLportClass metaprogramming
+	tool. Ignored for Borland.
+
+	* test/unit/unordered_test.cpp: Fix test for Digital Mars, unordered
+	containers value_type are not necessarily with an immutable key, it is
+	more portable to use value type rather than redefining it in the test.
+
+	* test/unit/string_test.cpp: Removed Windows CE macro check replaced
+	by WaitForMultipleObjects returned code check, more portable and
+	maintenable. Ignore a test for Digital Mars compiler.
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_manips.h, type_traits.h: Simplified metaprograming
+	tools implementation; now avoid compilation constant replaced by
+	type, Borland compiler has problem with constants.
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_bc.h: Made supported compiler check more accurate
+	free compiler is 5.5.1 so it is the oldest supported version. Borland
+	compiler do not support IEC559 specifications.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/bcc.mak: Put startup .obj to link with in
+	START_OBJ rather than LDLIBS, thanks Eric Sanford.
+
+	* src/c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Temporarily removed category
+	check in __Extract_locale_name function for Borland, looks like LC_ALL
+	or LC_MAX has not the right value.
+
+2005-12-13  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/cxa.c: Add include of stlport_prefix.h first, this file
+	should be always included first in STLport translation units,
+	it prepares some compilers config and define important for Wins
+	__BUILDING_STLPORT macro.
+
+2005-12-13  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/targetdirs.mak: built-in

+
+2005-12-11  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/bcc.mak : Add -w-eff to disable 'useless'
+	code warning, we had to chose between this warning and the 'used
+	parameter' one.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/targetdirs.mak: Removed comment about folder
+	creation action under windows platform. The action is identical to
+	the one used in the nmake build system and no one complains about it
+	so current situation is not so bad. Only users of Windows before Windows
+	98 should eperiment troubles, this is a known limitation.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/dmc.mak, cygming/rules-so.mak: Change config,
+	now we directly invoke the linker, we do not use a compiler call for it.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/app/bcc.mak: Fix linker option in order to generate
+	a windows executable and not a dll, thanks Eric Sanford.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/app/rules-install.mak: Add install dir dependency
+	rather than doing a folder existence check in rules actions.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/app/rules.mak: Restore slash rotation for Borland
+	linker invocation and fix static rules dependencies to guaranty folder
+	creations.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/lib/bcc.mak: Add missing archiver page size parameters.
+
+	* build/test/unit/bcc.mak: Add _STLP_DEBUG_UNINITIALIZED for static
+	debug rules.

+
+2005-12-09  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/lib/configure.bat: Add Borland compiler to compilers
+	able to mix a dll build with a static native runtime.

+	WCHAR_MAX definition.
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_gcc.h: Configure STLport for alpha platform as not

+	users a point of customization of the automatic linking feature.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/lib/macro.mak, gmake/cygming/lib.mak: Use

+	way to customize the generated library names.
+
+	* test/eh: Generalized use of msvc.mak rather than all the nmake-vc??.mak

+
+2005-11-29  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* src/cxa.c: mutex should be recursive-safe, due to __cxa_finalize
+	may be called recursive.
+
+2005-11-28  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_threads.h: Simplified expression used to instanciate
+	_Atomic_swap_struct, gcc 2.95 had trouble with the one line expression.
+
+	* src/dll_main.cpp: Fix instanciation of _Swap_lock_struct that has been
+	changed and renamed in _Atomic_swap_struct.
+
+	* test/unit/map_test.cpp, set_test.cpp: Simplified call to map constructor
+	taking a functor and allocator instance, split it in a creation of a les<int>
+	instance then passed to the constructor; gcc 2.95 had trouble with previous
+	version.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_cmath.h, _cstdlib.h: Now those files includes each other to
+	make sure that all abs overloads are defined when it is imported in STLport
+	namespace. gcc 2.95 is very strict on this point and only consider the abs
+	overloads existing at the first import calls, all overloads added after that
+	are discarded silently.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_cmath.h: Removed unjustified abs function overloads done
+	directly in STLport namespace for gcc 2.95 and before. Those overloads
+	clashed on a Linux with gcc 2.95 from the sourceforge compiler farm. 
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/gcc.mak: Generalized definition of _REENTRANT under
+	Linux to make detection of a multithreaded build from STLport code easier.

+	useless if facet instance reference counter is right.
+
+	* src/locale_impl.cpp, message.cpp: Change classic facets initialization code
+	to simply set initial counter to 1 rather than incrementing it after construction.
+
+	* test/unit/evc.mak fix path to config file in existance check.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_move_construct_fwk.h, type_manips.h: Add workaround to use
+	move constructor with Borland compiler.
+
+2005-11-28  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/targetdirs.mak: change names of .o output dirs
+	to make bcc happy (bug with passing name that contain '-' from
+	compiler to linker). Replacement: 'shared' -> 'so', 'static' -> 'ar',
+	'-' -> '_' (i.e. obj/gcc/shared-stlg -> obj/gcc/so_stlg, a bit shorter)
+	[Suggested by Francois Dumont].
+
+2005-11-27  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/targets.mak, app/rules.mak, linux/rules-so.mak:
+	use gcc instead of c++ as linker if there are no C++ objects.
+
+	* src/cxa.c, build/misc/cxa_atexit/Makefile.inc, build/misc/cxa_atexit/gcc.mak:
+	workaround for bugged __cxa_finalize; use builded libcxa.so in LD_PRELOAD or
+	/etc/ld.so.preload in Linux system with bugged glibc. See also
+	http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24189
+
+2005-11-27  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_manips.h: Add import of __true_type and
+	__false_type in STLport private namespace as the using namespace
+	directive do not seems to be enough for latest gcc version.
+
+	* src/time_facets.cpp: Fix buffer size decrementation in __write_formatted_time
+	function thanks Petr Ovtchenkov
+
+2005-11-26  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_complex.h: Move implementation of generic abs, arg and polar
+	after definition of double overload used in implementation. Thanks Kees de
+	Bruin
+
+	* stlport/stl/_threads.h, _alloc.h, _alloc.c: Fix lock free node allocator
+	implementation thanks Weis.
+
+	* stlport/stl/wrappers: Removed, no more maintained and complicated to fix
+	with the debug and pointer specialization implementations.
+
+	* test/unit/stack_allocator.h: Creation of an allocator using a stack buffer.
+	This allocator specificity is to not be stateless and not default constructible.
+
+	* test/unit/list_test.cpp, stlport/stl/_list.h, _list.c: Add of a test with the
+	StackAllocator. Fix list implementation to correctly handle allocator state
+	in the methods moving elements from a list instance to an other.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_carray.h: Creation of a new internal struct _CArray that mimic a C
+	array with the additionnal feature of being able to be instanciated with a type
+	without default constructor.
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_list.h: Adapt iterator invalidation according allocators
+	compare result.
+
+	* test/unit/slist_test.cpp, stlport/stl/_slist.h, _slist.c: idem list.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_slist.h: Modification of the splice_after methods signature. Users
+	now have to pass the source slist instance, this is mandatory in order to compare
+	the 2 slists allocator instance before moving an element from a slist instance to
+	an other.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string_base.h: Fix _M_swap implementation for basic_string instanciation
+	with allocator having a state.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_list.c, _slist.c: sort methods now throw an overflow exception when lists
+	are too long to be sorted with the current algorithm. This is preferable to a buffer
+	overrun.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_alogobase.c: Small equal_range optimization, upper_bound is not called
+	anymore when lower_bound returned value is already not equivalent to the search value.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake: Add build system for Digital Mars and Borland C++ compilers
+
+	* build/lib/configure.bat: Add following options
+	  --use-boost
+	  --not-thread-safe
+	  --no-rtti
+	see script for explanation. --mingw removed, detected with --compiler option, if
+	gcc, dmc or bcc then we are using MinGW tools.
+
+	* build/lib/configure: Add --not-thread-safe option
+
+	* build/Makefiles: Add build options to generate not thread safe libs and no rtti libs,
+	all compilers option has not been updated.
+
+	* stlport/c*: Modification of C++ headers wrapping C ones. All code moved to internal
+	headers in stlport/stl folder. Internal headers are only included if include comes from
+	user code otherwise only native header is included. Limit dependency between STLport
+	headers relations and native library once. Reported by problem building with Borland
+	compiler.
+
+	* test/unit/cppunit/cppunit_mini.h: Replace cstring include with string.h to avoid
+	references to std namespace in headers, should be more portable. Add typedef Base
+	definition in CPPUNIT_TEST_SUITE macro, used in calls to base class methods, help
+	Borland.
+
+	* Generalize use of secure string functions (strcpy_s for instance) for MSVC compilers
+	supporting it and tagging former versions like deprecated. The pragma warning that used
+	to disable this warning has been removed.
+
+	* stlport/BC50: Removed, no necassry anymore for supported Borland compiler versions.
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug: Implementation modification, now debug wrapper agregate a non debug
+	instance rather than inheriting from it. Makes debug implementation clearer as we are now 
+	forced to implement the complete containers interfaces.
+
+	* stlport/stl/pointers: Fix implementation in order to support Standard compilers
+	not accepting cast from function pointer to void*.
+
+	* *: Reinforce use of STLport private namespace (stlp_priv or stlport::priv) for all
+	internals algorithms.
+
+2005-11-21  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* Fix classic locale facet initial reference counter thanks

+
+2005-11-20  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* src/num_put.h: check that incoming string has enough
+	digits for fractional part processing. This check includes
+	check for empty incoming string. (Thanks Leonardo [leoapsilva]
+	for the bug report).
+
+	* stlport/stl/_monetary.c: fix processing the case when
+	number of digits in value less then number of digits in fraction.
+
+	* src/facets_byname.cpp: international currency symbol should
+	be the first (not depends upon where currency symbol situated in
+	the national format).
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: tests for reproducing this problems.
+
+2005-11-20  Gail Baker  <baker88@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/CC.mak: Updated compiler option
+	to compile larger inline functions inline.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/lib/CC.mak: Changed how the header
+	file linking is done to only do it once instead of with
+	every compile.
+
+	* build/lib/README: include instructions for SunPro compiler.
+ 
+	* build/test/unit/CC.mak: allow the STLP_DEBUG version to compile.
+
+2005-11-19  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stdlib.h: replace C++ comments by C, to satisfy -ansi
+	option of compiler.
+
+2005-11-18  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/lib/rules-install-so.mak, 
+	app/rules-install-so.mak: Add copy of manifest file when exist
+	rather than when compiler is Visual Studio 2005.
+
+	* src/stdio_streambuf.cpp: Removed warning for EVC 3 and 4 thanks
+	Michael Fink patch.
+
+	* stlport/stl/math.h, stdlib.h: Fix EVC3 warning thanks Michael Fink
+	patch.
+
+	* doc/README.evc3: doc update from Michael Fink.
+
+	* stlport/*, stlport/*, tests/*: Clean up of trailing blank charaters
+	in all source files.

+2005-11-17  Gail Baker  <baker88@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/CC.mak, depend.mak, app/CC.mak, lib/CC.mak:
+	support of SunPro 5.7 compiler.
+
+	* build/lib/CC.mak: ditto
+
+	* stlport/stl/_rope.c: Removed extra semi-colons.
+	
+	* stlport/stl/_rope.h: Sunpro compiler had a problem with
+	the __ROPE_DEPTH_SIZE macro doing an addition. Changed to
+	a fixed value instead.
+
+	* stlport/cstdlib: Updated to allow the compiler to find abs and div
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_sunpro.h: Disabled _STLP_LINK_TIME_INSTANTIATION
+	since this nolonger works with current files. The issue here is that
+	a number of defines that are required in the C versions of the files
+	use defines that are undefed at the end of the include. So, when
+	the compiler finally compiles the C version at link time the defines
+	are lost and the files don't compile. Also added a minor change
+	to allow files that are compiled with cc to include stl_sunpro.h
+	without bailing out.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_bvector.h: Added stl/_range_errors.h required by
+	an exception that can be called.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_cmath.h: Changed to pull all math functions from std
+	namespace for SunPro compiles only.
+
+	* test/unit/fstream_test.cpp: Added SunPro compile to the list
+	of compilers that don't use the DO_CUSTOM_FACET_TEST.
+
+	* test/unit/string_test.cpp: Added Sun UI Threads to the list
+	of supported thread types in the test.
+
+	* test/unit/valarray_test.cpp: The compiler was having trouble
+	finding abs(). Added a "using std::abs" for the SunPro compiler
+	which solved the problem.
+
+	* test/unit/cppunit/cppunit_mini.h: Added additional using statements
+	for the str* commands.
+
+	* test/unit/cppunit/test_main.cpp: Added "using namespace std;"
+	for the SunPro compiler.
+
+	* build/test/unit/CC.mak: support of SunPro 5.7 compiler
+
+2005-11-17  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_messages_facets.h, src/messages.cpp: Move message facet
+	constructor private to guaranty that it is only called from the _Locale_impl
+	class for classic locale facets creation. Change constructor implementation
+	as now passed _Message instance is dynamically instanciated so needs to be
+	destroy on facet destruction; moreover the facet is also dynamically allocated
+	and has to be destroyed when reference counter reach 0.
+
+	* src/locale_impl.cpp: Removed call to now useless free_classic_locale function.
+	Change make_classic_locale implementation, now classic locale facets are
+	allocated on the heap and have to be destroyed like any ordinary facets
+	when reference counter reach 0.
+
+2005-11-15  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_tree.h: check iterator returned from lower_bound
+	in equal_range_unique for end, to avoid increment [useful when
+	key not available].
+
+	* test/unit/map_test.cpp: test for problem above.
+
+2005-11-09  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/test/eh/gcc.mak: Fix build system for Cygwin/MinGW systems that

+	Fixed jump target names for Win9x OSes: they must be 8 characters or
+	shorter.
+
+2005-11-07  Michael Fink  <vividos@users.sourceforge...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/evc3.mak, build/Makefiles/nmake/evc4.mak,
+	build/lib/configure.bat, stlport/config/stl_evc.h: Added check if
+	using x86 emulator configuration; using of proper include paths in
+	case.
+
+	* doc/README.evc4: Documentation update

+2005-10-08  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_config.h: Add endianess specification for DEC alpha thanks
+	sourceforge compiler farm.
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_intel.h: Remove reference to _STLP_GLOBAL_NEW_HANDLER
+	in this file as this macro depends on native Standard library which is
+	the back end MSVC compiler one so macro set in stl_msvc.h.
+
+2005-10-07  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>

+
+	* stlport/stl/_ostream.h, _ostream.c: Move _M_init function implementation
+	from .c to .h as .c is not included when _STLP_NO_CUSTOM_IO is defined
+	but _M_init might not be exported if compiler fully inline it.
+
+2005-10-03  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_tree.h: Fix _S_value method definition that returns
+	a value_type& rather than the reference typedef as reference might be,

+	* build/lib/gcc.mak: don't use LEAK_PEDANTIC with gcc 2.95 [but this not help,
+	segfault at program termination still happens].
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_gcc.h: gcc 2.95 has problem with llabs, so force to use
+	_STLP_NO_VENDOR_STDLIB_L; 2.95 fails to initialize builtin types.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_cmath.h: workaround for gcc 2.95---it has problem with 'using'
+	directive [problem with 'abs' with float types as argument].
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_traits.h: workaround for gcc 2.95 [parentheses around
+	template argument]. Thanks Thomas Kho.
+
+	* test/unit/fstream_test.cpp: custom facet test compilation fail for gcc 2.95
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/icc.mak, build/test/unit/icc.mak: support icc 9.0,
+	thanks John Fisher-Ogden and Thomas Kho.
+
+	* src/c_locale_glibc/c_locale_glibc2.c: use newlocale/freelocale for
+	glibc 2.3.x, and __newlocale/__freelocale for glibc 2.2.x. Thanks Gail Baker.
+
+2005-09-19  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/clean.mak, lib/clean.mak, app/clean.mak: Add check
+	for file or folder existance before calling del or rd to avoid error
+	messages that give a bad feed back to STLport users.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake: Add support to use the GNU make tool in a Windows
+	cmd console. For the moment it is used to build STLport using a simple
+	MinGW distrib.
+
+	* stlport/stl/type_traits.h: Simplified code removing the _IsConvertibleIfNot
+	that has never proved of being useful, it only introduces problem with some
+	limited compilers.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string_workaround.h, _string.h, debug/_string.h: Fix string
+	range constructor bug in the VC6 specific workaround implementation that was
+	resulting in a memory leak. Thanks Felix Wyss report.
+
+2005-09-18  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_hash_fun.h: add hash function for void *.
+
+	* src/facets_byname.cpp, src/message_facets.h: introduce map between
+	nl_catd type [that is void * on Linux] and messages_base::catalog
+	[that is int by Standard]; this should remove problems on platforms
+	where sizeof(int) < sizeof(void *).
+
+2005-09-16  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/cwchar: Add MinGW 3.8 runtime wide-char to multi-byte functions
+	import within STLport namespace thanks Rene Riviera.
+
+2005-09-14  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_gcc.h: Mingw support string wide functions thanks
+        Rene Riviera report.
+
+2005-09-13  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_thread.h: fix return type specification
+	[volatile void * -> void *].
+
+2005-09-12  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_thread.h: Fix _Atomic_swap_ptr implementation in single
+	threaded mode and when there is no pointer atomic swap operation.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_site_config.h: Add _STLP_NO_CYGWIN macro to signal use
+	of the -mno-cygwin cygwin option.
+
+	* build/lib/configure: Remove automatic generation of stlport/script_config.h.
+
+2005-09-11  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/sysid.mak: provide identification hosted platform.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/targetdirs.mak: CygWin/MinGW has no /usr/bin/test,
+	but built-in test support -e; see record 2005-09-04.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/top.mak: separate hosted platform and target platform
+	file extentions, tools, utilites.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/?/sys.mak, build/Makefiles/gmake/?/targetsys.mak:
+	ditto.
+
+2005-09-09  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/c_locale_win32.c: Fix _Locale_wchar_[tolower,toupper] implementation
+	which was wrong when wint_t was not the same typedef as wchar_t.
+
+	* build/lib/configure: Removed obsolete configure options --with-msvc and
+	--with-mssdk. And --no-cygwin option to make build of STLport using -mno-cygwin
+	option easier.
+
+	* stlport/script_config.h: New header used to put additionnal macros defined
+	by the configure script.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_config.h: Add script_config.h include.
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_gcc.h: Use of the new _STLP_NO_CYGWIN macro to set
+	the right _STLP_NATIVE_INCLUDE_PATH macro value.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/gcc.mak: Change CC and CXX assignment from := to
+	?= to take into account an already existing definition.
+
+2005-09-07  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake: Adopt a more traditionnal unixes naming
+	convention for cygwin and mingw.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake: Attempt to make STLport library names more
+	coherent between unixes and windows systems. Now windows use the 5.0
+	extension like under unixes even if under unixes the file extension
+	is before the 5.0 and under windows it will be after. The other
+	difference is that the debug suffix is 'g' when using gcc and 'd' for
+	the other compilers. This modification comes from a work to improve
+	STLport integration within boost build system, bjam.
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_msvc.h: Modify MSVC auto link feature to reflect
+	above modifications.
+
+2005-09-06  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_gcc.h: Fix cygwin config that do have native
+	mbstate_t definition.
+
+2005-09-05  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* repository: RC5, tag STLPORT_5_0_RC5
+
+2005-09-04  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/targetdirs.mak: in sh's built-in 'test' no -e
+	option on Solaris, use external 'test' instead.
+
+	* build/test/unit/gcc.mak: Fix LDSEARCH recursive problem; fix
+	options for ld search path for some platforms.
+
+	* stlport/cstdlib, stlport/stl/_cmath.h: fix usage of native
+	?f and ?l math functions on Solaris; hypot for long double should't
+	loose precision, if no native C function present.
+
+2005-09-02  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_msvc.h, stl/_move_construct_fwk.h: Add the 
+	_STLP_NO_MOVE_SEMANTIC configuration macro to remove move semantic
+	support for MSVC .Net 2002 that seems to be unable to support it.
+	Maybe we should rather remove this compiler version support...
+
+	* test/unit/mvctor_test.cpp: Add _STLP_NO_MOVE_SEMANTIC check.
+
+2005-08-31  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake: Enhance nmake build system to correctly take
+	into account the .manifest files generated by VS 2005 Beta.
+
+2005-08-29  Petr Ovtchenkov  <complement@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* CVS repository: CVS repository master copied from cvs.stlport.com to SourceForge.
+	All history preserved!
+
+2005-08-27  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_hashtable.h: Fix move feature integration for the hash_multimap
+	container.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_deque.h: Fix _Deque_base move constructor implementation.
+
+	* test/unit/mvctor_test.cpp: Change move constructor tests to use dynamically
+	allocated string rather than static ones.
+
+	* build/test/unit/nmake-vc6.mak: Increase compiler maximum heap size to allow
+	compilation with stldbg rules.
+
+	* build/test/unit/nmake-evc4.mak: Fix macro typo OPT_STLDBG_STATIC -> 
+	OPT_STATIC_STLDBG
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/gcc.mak: Filter out the newly added -fuse-cxa-atexit
+	compilation option for Cygwin and Mingw, the granted libc is not compatible
+	with it.
+
+2005-08-26  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_solaris.h: C++ comments replaced by C ones,
+	this file may be included by C sources. Thanks Matti Rintala.
+
+2005-08-25  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_config.h, _epilog.h: Move of stlport namespace alias
+	definition from _epilog.h to _config.h to avoid redefinition as _epilog.h
+	is reentrant. This is a workaround for a HPUX aCC compiler bug reported
+	by Baker.
+
+2005-08-25  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/gcc.mak: usage of -fuse-cxa-atexit strongly
+	required for correct order of static objects dtors calls. This is
+	used in deinitialization of locale-related objects. Thanks Matti Rintala.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_config.h: use different namespaces for mulithreaded
+	and non-multithreaded builds to avoid usage of non-multithreaded
+	application with multithreaded libstlport and vice versa;
+	[combination non-mt & mt lead to crash due to different instances
+	and sizes of allocators for non-mt and mt cases].
+
+2005-08-23  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_config_compat.h: Add check of _STLP_NO_OWN_IOSTREAMS
+	macro to make remove of its support more explicit thanks to a #error
+	directive.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_tree.h, _hashtable.h: Now reference and pointer types
+	are taken from the _Traits template parameter used to instanciate
+	the class. Doing so now set::reference and hash_set::reference are
+	const_reference which is coherent with respective iterators that are
+	immutable. Moreover it fixes a VC6 bug in reverse_iterator implementation
+	that was trying to transform a const reference to a simple reference
+	thanks Russell Miller report.
+
+	* test/unit/set_test.cpp: New test case for set reverse_iterator.
+
+2005-08-23  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_gcc.h: seems HP-UX has no *f variants of math
+	functions [ceilf, fabsf, etc.]
+
+2005-08-21  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string.h, _rope.h: Removed __move_traits specialization
+	for string wstring crope and wrope. There is no reason to believe that
+	its move construtor will be complete as an STLport user has the right
+	to specialized the std::allocator<> with char or wchar_t.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_function_base.h, _alloc.h: Generalized use of the
+	__stlport_class struct rather than introducing a new helper type
+	(__stlport_less or __stlport_alloc) when we need to recognize STLport
+	implementation from a user one.
+
+2005-08-20  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_list.h, _slist.h: Fix move constructor implementation
+	thanks Henrik Goldman (www.x-formation.com) report.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_alloc.h: Fix type_traits specialization for allocator
+	type. Now specialization is only apply for the default STLport allocator
+	implementation and not for potential user specialization.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_deque.h, _hashtable.h, _string.h, _tree.h, _vector.h:
+	Simplification of the move framework application especially in the
+	definition of the containers __move_traits specialization. Many
+	_AsMoveSource call replaced by explicit call to the move constructor
+	when we are sure that there is one.
+
+	* test/unit/mvctor_test.cpp: Add many tests to check move contructor
+	implementations.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_function_base.h: Add type_traits specialization for the
+	less functor to help the move framework when dealing with associative
+	containers.
+
+	* test/unit/mvctor_test.cpp: Add a new test case checking correct move
+	semantic support for all STL containers.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_rope.h: Add move semantic support to the rope class.
+
+2005-08-19  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/gcc.mak: fix extraction of gcc version.
+	Thanks Thomas Kho.
+
+2005-08-18  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_deque.c: Fix _M_erase range for movable types method
+	implementation, same bug as below in vector.
+
+	* test/unit/mvctor.cpp: Improve test case on vector to reveal bug
+	below and add same tests for deque which is the other container that
+	use the move contructor feature.
+
+2005-08-18  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* INSTALL: add some words about multithread options and libraries.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_fstream.c: some code clean to reduce bogus compiler
+	warnings with -Wall.
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_gcc.h: seems HP-UX has no llabs and lldiv.
+
+2005-08-17  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_vector.h: Fix _M_erase range for movable types
+	implementation thanks Sergej Zagursky.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/vc8.mak: removed /RTC1 compiler option, the platform
+	SDK compiler do not support it. STLport users will just have to activate it
+	by themself if they want to.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_complex.h: Fix some floating point literals thanks
+	 Ulrich Eckhardt report.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_time_facets.c: Complete integration of the '#' MS extension
+	in the date/time format string, reported thanks to the recent locale time_get
+	new test case.
+
+2005-08-14  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_msvc.h: Fix platform SDK compiler config, even latest
+	version that announce to be similar to .Net 2005 beta do not throw bad_alloc
+	from the new operator.
+
+	* stlport/cstdio, cstdlib: Replaced some _WIN64 checks by a
+	_STLP_USING_PLATFORM_SDK_COMPILER check.
+
+	* test/unit/cmath_test.cpp: Complete test filtering for Microsoft platform SDK
+	compiler.
+
+2005-08-14  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: tests for time_get facet.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_time_facets.c: fix processing of %p format
+	[12:00 PM ~ 12:00, 12:00 AM ~ 00:00].
+
+	* src/time_facets.cpp: substitute expanded equivalent format strings
+	instead of %T, %R, %r.
+
+	* stlport/pthread.h: Fix C++ comment in a potentially C header. Thanks Ali
+
+2005-08-11  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl_user_config.h: Add _STLP_USING_PLATFORM_SDK_COMPILER so that
+	STLport user can signal they are using platform SDK compiler.
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_msvc.h: Add use of _STLP_USING_PLATFORM_SDK_COMPILER.
+
+	* test/unit/cmath_test.cpp, valarray_test.cpp: Removed tanh calls when using
+	AMD 64 platform SDK compiler, looks like they miss something...
+
+2005-08-09  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/fstream.cpp: Final fix of basic_filebuf::open method. Now when open
+	from a Win32 handle the file will be considered as in binary access with no
+	append action.
+
+2005-08-08  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/fstream.cpp: Fix annoying 64 warning and basic_filebuf::open method
+	from a low level file descriptor or from an HANDLE (not yet complete).
+	Thanks Yves Maliet report.
+
+2005-08-07  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/inner_product.cpp: Fix 64 bits portability warning.
+
+	* test/unit/cmath_test.cpp: Removed modf tests for Windows 64 platform
+	as the SDK is missing the underlying modff implementation.
+
+	* stlport/cstdlib: Add a div function definition which is missing in the
+	Windows 64 SDK.
+
+	* stlport/cstdio: Add vsnprintf definition which is missing in Windows
+	64 SDK.
+
+	* stlport/exception: Add flexibility for definition of vendor terminate
+	and uncaught_exception function namespace. Can now be defined independantly
+	of the unexpected_exception namespace.
+
+	* src/dll_main.cpp: Removed explicit turn off of optimization for Microsoft
+	compilers after .Net 2003. There were no comment to explain why optimizations
+	were turned off so I guess it was a compiler bug. .Net 2003 being a major
+	new version I hope this bug has vanish with this version.
+
+	* src/fstream.cpp: Removed static assertion for windows file handle to be 32
+	bits. Under Windows 64, even if the API is still 32 bits handles are still
+	defined as void*. We will see when code will run under a real Windows 64 platform
+	if it is a problem.
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_msvc.h: Add configuration for Windows 64 Platform SDK.
+	Expecially add automatic link to bufferoverflowU.lib to avoid modification
+	of STLport build system and STLport users projects.
+
+2005-08-06  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* src/c_locale_glibc/c_locale_glibc2.c: add explicit type conversion
+	to avoid warnings on 64-bits platforms; thanks Thomas Kho and
+	Karol Szkudlarek for report.
+
+2005-08-05  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_valarray.h: Add missing _debug.h header inclusion for
+	_STLP_ASSERT macro definition.
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_hashtable.h: Fix typo in hashtable move constructor.
+	Thanks arabesc report.
+
+2005-08-05  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* doc/FAQ: some words about cross-compilation.
+
+2005-08-04  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_hashtable.c: Fix erase(range) implementation thanks
+	arabesc.
+
+	* test/unit/hash_test.cpp: Add new test for previous fix.
+
+2005-08-04  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* stlport/csetjmp: sometimes, if native setjmp.h was included first,
+	the setjmp functions situated in global namespace, not in vendor's
+	std. This may confuse following csetjmp.
+
+	* test/unit/setjmp_header_test2.cpp: test for this.
+
+	* build/test/unit/Makefile.inc: ditto.
+
+2005-08-03  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* INSTALL document updated to signal no longer support of the
+	'wrapper' mode.
+
+2005-08-02  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* stlport/stl_user_config.h, stlport/stl/_site_config.h:
+	fix some obsolete comments.
+
+2005-07-31  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* test/unit/math_aux.h, cmath_test.cpp: are_equals moved into
+	math_aux.h to reuse in other tests.
+
+	* test/unit/sstream_test.cpp: check input to float, inspired by
+	Jeff Williams.
+
+2005-07-27  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/iomanip, stl/_algo.h: Removed some persistent occurences
+	of __in and __out keywords reserved by Microsoft.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_pthread_alloc.c: Fix annoying warning reported by gcc.
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_msvc.h: Fix _STLP_VENDOR_UNEXPECTED_STD macro
+	definition to empty rather than '1'. Could have produce a compilation
+	error with compilers like Intel C++ used with the VC6 native Standard
+	library.
+
+	* stlport/queue, stl/_ctraits_fns.h, _hashtable.h, _numeric.h, _string.h
+	_tree.h: Fix macro guards used to avoid inclusion of _function.h or
+	_function_base.h or functional thanks Dinesh Monga report.
+
+2005-07-26  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* doc/FAQ: description of pseudo-leaks, thanks Michael Fink.
+
+	* STLport (repository): STLport 5.0 RC4
+
+2005-07-25  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_evc.h: Move _DEBUG definition fix up before
+	stl_msvc.h inclusion to have correct library link automatically.
+	Thanks Michael Fink.
+
+2005-07-24  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string.c, _rope.c: Add instanciation of npos for all
+	compilers thanks Simon.
+
+	* test/unit/string_test.cpp: Add creation of a reference to string::npos
+	to force compiler to generate memory for it. Used to reveal a link error.
+
+	* test/unit/cppunit/cppunit_mini.h: Removed redondant semi column in 
+	CPPUNIT_TEST_SUITE_REGISTRATION macro definition.
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_msvc.h, stl_intel.h: Concidering that compilers
+	emulating MSVC compilers use the same native Standard Library headers
+	macros _STLP_NEW_PLATFORM_SDK and _STLP_NO_VENDOR_STDLIB_L has been moved
+	outside the _STLP_MSVC scope. _STLP_GLOBAL_NEW_HANDLER is now defined
+	only for Intel compiler versions before 9.0.
+
+	* stlport/cstdlib, stl/_cmath.h: Because of the previous remark about
+	emulators of MSVC using MSVC headers, macro checks for global definition
+	of C math functions has been changed from _STLP_MSVC to _MSC_VER. 
+
+2005-07-23  Michael Fink  <vividos@users.sourceforge...>
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: Added creating locale pointer in
+	test_supported_locale() when no exception handling is available.
+
+	* src/stlport.rc: Added version info defines when not available through
+	windows.h. Happens on evc3 MIPS and evc3 SH3.
+
+2005-07-23  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string_sum.h: Fix missing return statement in a compare
+	method.
+
+2005-07-22  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_algo.c: Fix search_n implementation for random access
+	iterator thanks Jim Xochellis
+
+	* test/unit/algo_test.cpp: Add test case for the previous bug thanks
+	Michael Fink.
+
+	* src/num_get_float.cpp: Fix gcc Mingwin and Cygwin special version with
+	building with -O2 option.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/gcc.mak: Add -D_REENTRANT definition for cygwin and
+	-mthreads for mingwin platform to make STLport thread safe like under the
+	other supported platforms.
+
+2005-06-30  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* stlport/wchar.h, src/c_locale.c, stlport/stl/_threads.h: fix Netware
+	wcs... functions.
+
+2005-06-30  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_rope.h, _rope.c: Duplicate basic_string::npos definition code
+	in rope implementation to use a "Standard" static const npos definition when
+	possible depending on the compiler features. Thanks caldwed report.
+
+2005-06-30  Michael Fink  <vividos@users.sourceforge...>
+
+	* stlport/cstdlib, stdlib.h: Fixed issue with including stdlib.h after
+	setjmp.h; fix from 2005-06-23 wasn't solving the problem.
+
+2005-06-28  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_hash_func.h: For MSVC .Net compiler we grant the hash<size_t>
+	specialization rather than the hash<unsigned int> one to avoid 64 bits
+	warnings when instanciating a hashed container with the size_t key.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_istream_iterator.h: Modify istream_iterator implementation
+	to avoid the default read from the istream even if the istream_iterator
+	instance is not used.
+
+	* test/unit/istmit_test.cpp: Add many tests for the copy_n/istream_iterator
+	combination. Those tests are no active for the moment as they are failing,
+	will be fixed after 5.0 release.
+
+	* build/test/unit/nmake-vc-common.mak: Tests are no more built with the
+	_STLP_NO_CUSTOM_IO option, see reason below.
+
+	* test/unit/fstream_test.cpp: Add custom_facet test to check that STLport
+	support instanciation of basic_fstream with something else that the std::char_traits
+	For the moment the test fail when we try to use the stream for I/O operations
+	should be fixed after 5.0 release.
+
+2005-06-27  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/locale_impl.cpp: Fix locale implementation to avoid to call facet
+	destructor when user explicitely required not to do so.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_fstream.c: Fix _M_setup_codecvt method implementation to avoid
+	a bad_cast exception on basic_filebuf construction. At this point the locale
+	used to instanciate it is the classic locale that might not have the necessary
+	codecvt facet. The user is then force to call imbue after basic_filebuf
+	construction otherwise I/O operations will fail. When imbue is invoked, if
+	the locale still do not have the necesary facet, the stream is put in the fail
+	state. Thanks Alexander Pototskiy
+
+2005-06-26  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_config_compat.h: Add _STLP_OWN_IOSTREAMS macro for backward
+	compatibility with library checking it.
+
+2005-06-23  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/complex.cpp, complex_trig.cpp, complex_exp.cpp: Removed code
+	duplication between float, double and long double version thanks to
+	some template functions. Thanks an Ulrich Eckhardt idear.
+
+	* stlport/cstdlib, stl/stdlib.h: Michael Fink patch to avoid setjmp.h
+	inclusion problem as stdlib.h contains a setjmp macro definition.
+
+	* test/eh/main.cpp: Redirection of std::cout and std::cerr for WinCE
+	thanks Michael Fink
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_evc.h: Restore long double support for WinCE, there
+	is just no *l math functions. Only define _STLP_NATIVE_INCLUDE_PATH
+	if not already defined, giving the user a chance to override the defaults
+	for yet unknown SDKs. Thanks Michael Fink and Ulrich Eckhardt.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/evc3.mak, evc4.mak: removed unneeded set of CC
+	for SHx; already done by setup batch. Thanks Michael Fink. 
+
+2005-06-21  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_ios.h, _ios_base.h, _num_get.c, _num_put.c, _complex.c,
+	_istream.c, _time_facets.c: Fix cast expression for the cached facets,
+	C casts replaced by static_cast and const added when missing.
+	Thanks Oliver Stoeneberg report.
+
+	* test/unit/unary.h: Replaced old STLport with new style ones. Get sqrt
+	function in global namespace rather than forcing use of the one in std
+	namespace, avoids ambiguity with VC6.
+
+	* test/unit/resolve_name.cpp: Add _STLP_DO_IMPORT_CSTD_FUNCTIONS definition
+	at the top of it to force import of C symbols in std even for limited
+	compilers like VC6.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_valarray.h: Add global namespace scope to C function calls
+	to avoid VC6 ambiguity problem.
+
+2005-06-20  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>

+
+	* src/c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Add static assertion to check
+	_Locale_mask_t size.
+
+	* src/complex_exp.cpp: Replaced complex log10 function static variables
+	with global constant, avoid multithreaded init problem. Thanks Ulrich
+	Eckhardt report.
+
+2005-06-17  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_alloc.h: Add initialization of the memory buffer in
+	allocator::allocate function and reset in allocator::deallocate to
+	the _STLP_SHRED_BYTE motif when _STLP_DEBUG_UNINITIALIZED is defined
+	to help track missing initialization issue.
+
+	* src/dll_main.cpp: Removed now useless _Node_alloc_helper class.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_alloc.c: Add complete cleanup of the __node_alloc static
+	datas in the _S_chunk_dealloc method, this is important if the clean up
+	occur before STLport shared lib is unloaded.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_alloc.c: Add a static instance of __node_alloc_cleaner in the
+	_S_alloc_call method and change init number of allocation to 1 to force
+	release of memory pool only on shared library unload.
+
+2005-06-11  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/cstdlib, stl/_cmath.h: Add _STLP_NO_CSTD_FUNCTION_IMPORTS macro
+	check before import of global C functions in STLport namespace. Required
+	for VC6 compiler to avoid ambiguity issue.
+
+	* src/complex.cpp, complex_epx.cpp, complex_trig.cpp: Scope math function
+	call with the global namespace to avoid VC6 ambiguity issue. It is safe
+	for the other compilers as STLport do define those function in global
+	namespace.
+
+2005-06-10  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/c_locale.h: Fix Cygwin configuration, separate alpha mask
+	from lower and upper one to avoid all lower character to also be upper
+	and opposite.
+
+	* src/ctype.cpp: Add static assertion to detect platform where
+	alpha = lower | upper which is wrong for STLport use.
+
+2005-06-10  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_hashtable.c: Fix max_load_factor management, Standard says
+	that load_factor <= max_load_factor and not <; the function detecting need
+	for rehash used to launch one even if the number of bucket do not change which
+	was counter performant. Fix the _M_insert_noresize method that was breaking
+	element order inserting elements in the middle of 2 equal elements.
+	Thanks Dieter Freismuth report.
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_gcc.h: Fix relative include path for latest gcc cygwin
+	package.
+
+2005-06-10  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/mwccnlm.mak: fix compiler version collection.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/netware/extern.mak: fix useful paths.
+
+	* src/c_locale.c: put here wrappers for some wfuncs, due to bogus
+	system libs in Netware.
+
+	* stlport/cwchar: use STLport's wchar.h to take wchar_t/wint_t for
+	Netware.
+
+	* stlport/wchar.h: use correct C declaration of some wfuncs, thanks
+	again to ugly Netware libs.
+
+	* stlport/ciso646, stlport/iso646.h, stlport/wctype.h: headers absent
+	for Novell Netware.
+
+	* stlport/cwctype: Metrowerks define __MSL__, but we don't use MSL libs
+	if we have STLport for Netware.
+
+	* stlport/cstdlib: div function from Novell Netware clib and libc lead to
+	system crash.
+
+2005-06-08  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/test/unit: Removed references to the now useless CPPUNIT_MINI
+	macro.
+
+	* test/unit/type_traits_test.cpp: Add new test case for trivial destructor
+	detection.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_fstream.h: Add missing basic_fstream construction from a
+	Win32 file handle, was already done for basic_ifstream and basic_ofstream,
+	thanks Alex Cosealin report.
+
+2005-06-07  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/test/unit/Makefile.inc: Fix syntax error at last line.
+
+2005-06-06  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* build/lib/configure: add config options for Metrowerks compiler for
+	Novell NetWare platform [references to root of MW headers/libs and to Novell's
+	SDK headers/libs].

+	* build/test/unit/mwccnlm.mak: idem.
+
+2005-06-03  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: Remove the very platform dependent LColl
+	class that was listing supported locales. STLport already do so and
+	report it using a runtime_error exception when not supported. When
+	compiler do not support exception only the C locale is checked.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake: Patches from Michael Fink to
+	  - check platform before linking to crtrtti.lib
+	  - check right configuration when using a nmake-evc?.mak file
+	  - update STATUS file.
+
+2005-06-02  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Add workaround for a Windows PSDK bug
+	concerning currency international symbol, the separation character is missing.
+
+	* src/locale_impl.h, locale_impl.cpp: Fix implementation to make classic locale
+	implementation a normal instance that is released when the counter reach 0, the
+	only difference is that no delete is performed on this instance. Idem for classic
+	locale implementation facets.
+
+	* stlport/cwctype: And _GLIBCPP_USE_WCHAR_T check when using GLibC as in this
+	case wide char functions are not imported in std and must be imported from the
+	global namespace.
+
+2005-06-01  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/locale_impl.h, locale_impl.cpp: Change classic locale initialization
+	implementation for limited compiler like MSVC6.
+
+2005-06-01  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/c_locale.h: check gcc on MacOS X. Patch by Zdenek Nemec
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/evc3.mak, evc4.mak, targets.mak:
+	support SH3/SH4 platform. Patch by Michael Fink.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/app/evc3.mak, evc4.mak: ditto.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/lib/evc3.mak, evc4.mak: ditto.
+
+	* build/lib/configure.bat, src/stlport.rc: ditto.
+
+2005-05-30  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/locale_impl.h, locale_impl.cpp, stlport/stl/_locale.h: An other pass
+	throught the classic locale initialization. Now all needed static variables
+	are in _Locale_impl::make_classic_locale method. Removed useless _Stl_aligned_buffer
+	union use in this locale initialization. Removed now useless _Locale_impl::free_classic_locale
+	method.
+
+2005-05-30  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_windows.h: worry about Windows CE when check Interlocked
+	API for MIPS. Patch by Michael Fink.
+
+	* build/lib/configure.bat: remove the -p option by autodetecting platform.
+	Patch by Michael Fink.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/evc3.mak, evc4.mak: corrects the evc4 makefiles
+	to always use the /GF switch [string pooling]. Patch by Michael Fink.
+
+	* doc/README.evc3, doc/README.evc4: reflect changes above.
+	Patch by Michael Fink.
+
+	* stlport/errno.h, stlport/time.h: when building for evc, including
+	errno.h and time.h often outputs the message in the #pragma statement
+	that including this file won't include the native one, since there is no
+	native include file. Now the text is only output when not building the library
+	and when the file is included directly, not via another STLport header file.
+	[Patch by Michael Fink.]
+
+2005-05-29  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: Add opendir returned value when listing

+
+2005-05-27  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/locale_impl.cpp: Add an initialization segment specification to make
+	global static variable ios_base::Init instance initialization prioritized
+	compare to STLport static global variable. iostreams like cout can be used
+	in global static variable initialization.
+
+2005-05-26  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/evc4.mak: Patch from Ulrich Eckhardt to use CC
+	environment variable defined by WCE*.bat script rather than redefining
+	it.
+
+	* src/locale.cpp, locale_impl.cpp, locale_catalog.cpp: New pass to move
+	static global variable in function to make initialization order clear.
+
+2005-05-25  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/ciso646: Creation of this missing C++ standard header STLport
+	wrapper.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_istream.h, _num_get.c, _algo.c, _monetary.c, _time_facets.h,

+
+2005-05-23  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_config.h: detect endianness for Intel's 64bit Pentium and
+	Itanium processors. Thanks Albrecht Fritzsche for contribution.
+
+2005-05-20  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/test/eh: Patch from Michael Fink to add EVC4 support for this test
+	suite.
+
+	* src/fstream.cpp: Use of Wlodek Szafran implementation for the _Filebuf_base::_M_read
+	method which is more performant than the previous one.
+
+	* test/unit/fstream_test.cpp: Add of a test for the special Win32 file format.
+
+	* test/unit: Add of many test to check Standard C/C++ headers independancy
+	and correct C header implementation.
+
+2005-05-18  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/fstream.cpp: Fix buffer overflow in _Filebuf_base::_M_read method
+	for the Win32 platform implementation thanks Wlodek Szafran report.
+
+	* src/c_locale_dummy/c_locale_dummy.c: Patch from Michael Fink for wrong C
+	prototype.
+
+2005-05-17  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: some fixes in moneypunct test, related
+	to international currency format; some problems still remains, due to
+	unclear specifications---if international currency 3-chars abbreviation
+	used in suffix form, additional space will be appended
+	['1 234.56 RUR ']. This is due to intl_fmp.curr_symbol() == "RUR ",
+	and the last is conform to OpenGroup spec.
+
+2005-05-16  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* src/c_locale_stub.cpp: "stub" implemntation moved into
+	c_locale_dummy/c_locale_dummy.c, this file removed
+
+	* src/c_locale.c: include c_locale_dummy/c_locale_dummy.c, in case of
+	no real locale implementation.
+
+	* src/c_locale_dummy/c_locale_dummy.c: This is a "stub" implementation
+	of the "c_locale.h" interface, intended for operating systems where
+	we have not yet written a real implementation. A C++ library using
+	this stub implementation is still standard-conforming, since
+	the C++ standard does not require that any locales other
+	than "C" be supported.
+
+	* build/lib/Makefile.inc: src/c_locale_stub.cpp removed.
+
+	* src/facets_by_name.cpp: add comments in the _Init_monetary_formats.
+
+	* src/c_locale_glibc/c_locale_glibc2.c: annotate some monetary-related
+	functions.
+
+2005-05-14  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>

+
+	* build/lib/aCC.mak: ditto.
+
+	* build/test/unit/aCC.mak: ditto.
+
+	* build/test/unit/gcc.mak: remove dbg-shared tag from default build;
+	if you need unit tests with debug info and without _STLP_DEBUG, make this
+	tag explicitly.
+
+2005-05-14  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_config.h, _config_compat_post.h, _cwchar.h, _epilog.h:
+	Patch from Albrecht Fritzsche to remove C++ comment from files accessible
+	by a pure C compiler.
+
+	* stlport/stl/c_locale.h: idem.

+
+	* src/gcc_localeinfo.h, c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: idem.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/gcc.mak: Add the -ansi option to the C compiler
+	command to know if any regression occur concerning use of C++ comment
+	in C files.
+
+2005-05-13  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/c_locale_win32/c_locale_win32.c: Improve the locale name recognition
+	system to be more unix compliant. Now you can pass locale name like
+	lang_country[.codepage] with lang being one of the ISO 639 values and
+	country one of the ISO 3166 ones.
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: Add a test case for the ctype facet.
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: Now list all the installed locales under
+	Win32 to test more locale than the simple french one.
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_msvc.h: Removed _WINDLL macro check when trying
+	to guess what type of library (dynamic/static) the STLport user want
+	to link with. _WINDLL is defined when generating a dll but it do not
+	imply anything on the user wish.
+
+	* src/ctype.cpp: Improve the ctype::scan_is method, you can now scan
+	for a character conforming to several ctype_base::mask and not only to one.
+
+	* src/ctype.cpp: Idem previous for ctype::scan_not which returns the first
+	character that do not conform to any of the passed mask.
+
+	* test/eh: Restore exception handling test suite. Removed some equality
+	tests that is no more valid for hash containers, this kind of test
+	is better in the unit tests. Add makefiles for MSVC compilers.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_tree.c: Fix _M_insert method that was leaking in case of
+	exception thrown by the comparison operator, reported by eh tests.
+
+2005-05-09  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_ctype.h, src/ctype.cpp: Reenforce data encapsulation of the
+	ctype<char> template specialization class. class static arrays
+	_S_upper, _S_lower, _S_classic_table removed from the definition and hiden
+	in the .cpp file.
+
+	* src/dll_main.cpp: Change _STLP_UNIX macro check in _STLP_PTHREADS check
+	as per thread allocator is only supported if the Posix pthread API is used,
+	thanks a Albrecht Fritzsche remarked.
+
+2005-05-07  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_gcc.h: Patch from John Smith for Mac OS X support.
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: Idem previous.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/cygming/lib.mak, sys.mak: Import lib extension
+	change from .lib to .dll.a for Mingw like under Cygwin. ld linker
+	looks for .dll.a before .lib, avoid conflict with Cygwin lib.
+
+2005-05-07  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* stlport/errno.h: use C++ 'using' construction only for C++. Thanks Gary.

+
+	* stlport/stl/_valarray.h: remove exhaustive this->.
+
+2005-05-04  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_msvc.h: Change configuration for MSVC .Net 2003 and
+	2005 that seems to have a bug in the namespace management.
+
+	* stlport/stdlib.h: Add errno.h inclusion from this file for gcc mingw
+	as this	compiler version do define errno macro in stdlib.h as MSVC do.
+
+2005-05-03  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl_user_config.h, stl/_site_config.h, config/stl_gcc.h, _prolog.h,

+	the STLport C headers.
+
+	* stlport/C headers: Cleaned from C++ style comments.
+
+2005-05-02  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/vc-common.mak: Restore of LDFLAGS_A_REL introduce
+	the 2004-10-30 and lost the 2005-04-16, it avoids warning due to use
+	of the whole program optimization with VC.Net 2003 and 2005.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string_io.c: Modification of the basic_string i/o operators
+	in the way it deals with the size_type and streamsize difference; it is
+	equivalent with the former one but do not generate warning with gcc
+	(mingwin).
+
+	* stlport/stddef.h, stdlib.h, errno.h: Fix issue under MSVC compilers where
+	native stdlib.h and stddef.h are defining errno macro without including
+	errno.h forbiding STLport to do so. Now errno.h will report this problem with
+	an explicit #error.
+
+	* test/unit/test_errno.cpp: Improvement of the test to reveal the previous
+	issue.
+
+2005-05-02  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* makesystem (repository): restore experimental support of MetroWerks
+	compiler for NetWare, with help of GNU make and Cygwin environment.
+
+2005-04-29  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_time_facets.c: gcc warnings reveal that we were missing some
+	ctype::widen method call to compare things like month or day names.
+	Also simplified implementation of the __match and __get_formatted_time that
+	do not really need all the template parameters passed to it.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_num_put.c: Add a cast to make call to the function min more
+	clear, it will perhaps help EVC++ builds correctly.
+
+	* src/strstream.cpp, stlport/stl/_sstream.c: Removed static assertion
+	replaced by modified implementation that takes into account the difference
+	between size_t and streamsize.
+
+2005-04-28  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* test/unit/limits_test.cpp: Improve integral types limit test for type
+	of unknown sign. In this case we check the min value of this integral type,
+	if 0 the type is unsigned. Moreover we check, except for the bool type,
+	the sign of -1 cast to the integral type, bool is a special type that
+	generate warning when built from -1 (MSVC).
+
+	* src/ctype.cpp: Creation of a small helper structure to check the validity
+	of a wchar_t value used as an index. This helper struct takes into account
+	the compiler representation of the wchar_t type, is it a sign type or not.
+	This helper avoids warning when wchar_t is unsigned.
+
+	* src/num_get.cpp: Removed unused _Initialize_get_digit function and
+	associated narrow_digits and narrow_xdigits arrays.
+
+2005-04-28  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_sstream.h, _num_put.c: __in replaced by __imode, __out

+
+2005-04-27  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* src/fstream.cpp: Fix Win32-64 file stream implementation. _M_read and
+	_M_write can now correctly handle respectively read and write of really
+	big buffers ( > 2Go)
+
+	* using/iosfwd.h, stlport/strstream.h, stl/_rope.h, _rope.c, _complex.h: Removed 
+	references to the _STLP_USE_NEW_IOSTREAMS macro, STLport only support "new"
+	iostreams.
+
+	* test/unit/max_test.cpp, min_test.cpp: Add tests to check that min and
+	max are not defined as macros.
+
+	* test/fstream_test.cpp: Add check in creation of test_file.txt
+	as following tests depends on its content.
+
+	* src/strstream.cpp, stdio_streambuf.cpp: Fix potential issue because of

+
+2005-04-26  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+

+
+2005-04-25  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* build/test/gcc.mak: workaround for [bug?] gmake, that sometimes lose

+
+	* test/unit/: Replaced all _STLP_NO_IOSTREAMS occurences with the STLport

+
+2005-04-21  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>

+
+2005-04-21  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* test/unit/sstream_test.cpp, fstream_test.cpp: integral type for

+
+2005-04-20  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>

+	version of find specialized for const char*.
+
+2005-04-16  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_algobase.c: memchr return NULL if value not found,
+	while find() [specialization for char *] should return last
+	[see record 2005-02-27 below]. Thanks Joshua Berne for report.
+
+	* test/unit/find_test.cpp: if char not found, char specialization of
+	find() should return last, not NULL.
+
+2005-04-14  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_list.h, _slist.h: add this-> resolution to get_allocator
+	[required in the member templates to resolve possible ambiguity]
+
+2005-04-13  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_list.h, _slist.h: Add missing get_allocator() call when

+
+2005-04-12  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* stlport/errno.h: solution 2005-04-12 not useful. Simplified schema,
+	semantically equivalent to Francois', but without extra function definition
+	[see records 2005-03-31 and 2005-04-01]
+
+2005-04-12  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>

+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: Add __FreeBSD__ macro check for the workaround
+	announced as Free BSD specific by the comment next to it.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_config.h: Add undef of _STLP_USE_DYNAMIC_LIB when in

+	for some commpilers (gcc mingwin).
+
+2005-04-07  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* build/lib/nmake-vc-common.mak: Removed useless add of STLport/lib to 
+	library paths when building STLport lib.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/*: Removed useless specification of the MSVC default

+	* test/unit/unordered_test.cpp, locale_test.cpp: Removed gcc mingw warnings.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/nmake/icl.mak, app/icl.mak, lib/icl.mak: Removed the

+	In addition to being useless Intel compiler emit compilation error about it.
+
+2005-04-06  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* test/unit/cppunit/test_main.cpp: windows.h required here
+	[see 2005-04-04; patch by Michael Fink].
+
+	* stlport/stl/_istream.h: __is replaced by __istr, due
+	to MS privatize __is.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_num_get.h: __in replaced by __ii, due to MS

+2005-04-04  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* errno.h, time.h, test_errno.cpp: evc3 and evc4 has no errno.h
+	and time.h headers [patch by Michael Fink].
+
+	* stl_evc.h, _windows.h, test_main.cpp: workaround to not include
+	<windows.h> in STLport headers (it is still needed for building
+	the lib and the unit tests, but that should be no problem).
+	Occurences of GetCurrentProcess() used in _STLP_ABORT were replaced
+	with the result of the inline function, which returns a pseudo-
+	HANDLE value. [patch by Michael Fink]
+
+	* cwchar, wchar.h, stl/_cwchar.h: fix access to mbstate and wint_t
+	for FreeBSD.
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/sysid.mak, app/gcc.mak, lib/gcc.mak:

+	This not the same.
+
+	* test/unit/mfunptr_test.cpp: add step-by-step test how compiler
+	recognize bind of member function for find_if. Not all compilers may
+	understand this. Thanks Markus for test idea.
+
+2005-03-31  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+

+
+	* stlport/assert.h, float.h, iso646.h, limits.h, errno.h:

+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/freebsd/rules-so.mak: idem.

+	cwchar header on OpenBSD.
+
+	* stlport/config/slt_gcc.h: llabs and *l math functions absent in OpenBSD;

+
+2005-03-23  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>
+
+	* build/Makefiles/gmake/app/gcc.mak, build/Makefiles/gmake/lib/gcc.mak:
+	incorporate gcc language support library into libstlport.so
+	[add ~100k to library],	but libsupc++ don't required more in link stage
+	for applications and libraries that use stlport, as in case with
+	libstdc++.

+
+	* stlport/stl/_cmath.h: removed logf, expf, sinf, cosf; option

+	solution from 2005-03-04 below.
+
+	* stlport/cmath: include cstdlib, due to declarations of abs

+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_slist.h: Add of many missing checks for the special

+
+	* test/unit/slist_test.cpp: Add checks for insert, insert_after, splice
+	splice_after methods.
+
+	* Patch from Ulrich Eckhardt:
+	- Fix macro _MSC_VER macro checks, VC6 should be found using _MSC_VER < 1300
+	check rather than _MSC_VER == 1200 to take into account compilers like

+
+2005-02-19  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stdexcept: Removal of a MSVC 7.0 and 7.1 workaround. Those compilers
+	have a bug resulting in the generation of very long compiler message as
+	soon as a simple compiler warning or error occur. Those messages are
+	template instanciation context of previous disabled warning. Warning message
+	are correctly disable but template instanciation context is kept until
+	an enable warning or an error happen. There is nothing to do against that
+	at STLport level except fixing or disabling warnings for unit tests build.

+	cctype include removed from _string.h. _string_hash.h also moved from
+	_string.h to string for consistency.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_complex.c: Add of the _string_io.h header include that
+	was missing after string include schema modification.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string_base.h, _string.h: basic_string move traits STLport

+	way that also works for evc4.
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_evc.h, stl_msvc.h, stlcomp.h: separate config stuff for stl_evc.h
+	and stl_msvc.h. Now all Windows CE specific defines are in stl_evc.h only.

+
+2004-10-06  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_rope.h, _rope.c: Code review, use of general STLport tools rather

+	sometimes in redesigned form.
+
+2004-09-29  Francois Dumont  <dums@stlport...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string_io.c: Removal of the native library specific calls of 
+	use_facet, only the STLport standard one is used.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_alloc.h, _alloc.c, src/dll_main.cpp: Implementation of a clean

+
+2004-09-28  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>

+
+2004-09-24  Francois Dumont  <dums@...>
+

+
+	* stlport/stl/type_traits.h, _vector.h, _algobase.h, _construct.h: Removal
+	of the __action_on_move type traits replaced by a generalization of the 
+	already existing __move_traits.
+

+
+2004-09-24  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@island...>

+
+2004-09-21  Francois Dumont  <dums@...>
+

+
+2004-09-20  Francois Dumont  <dums@...>
+
+	* src/explore/Makefiles/gmake/cygwin, mingw: Build configuration files merges
+	within a single build system: cygming. Future portage of STLport for compilers
+	using the GNU tools will be available from both systems. Removal of the vc6 build
+	under cygwin, for mono-platform compilers we support only one build system.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_vector.h: Modification of the destructor implementation to destroyed
+	object instances in a reverse order taking advantage of the way elements are
+	normaly added to this container.

+	Removal of the non intuitive and difficult to maintain automatic linking feature.
+
+	* Fixing of the locale implementation mecanism. Classic locale implementation is
+	also managed by a reference counter to be sure when it is possible to release
+	the associated ressources. Fix of a missing locale impl ref counter decrement
+	in the template locale constructor taking a facet, it was a possible source of
+	memory leak . Addition of a static object within locale_impl.cpp in 
+	_STLP_LEAKS_PEDANTIC mode to decrement the global locale impl ref counter when 
+	STLport library is unloaded. Addition of all the missing classic locale facets
+	destructor in free_classic_locale.
+
+	* src/locale_catalog.cpp: The locale by name constructor checks the "C" name
+	to simply copy (increment the ref counter) the classic locale implementation 
+	rather than instanciating a new one.
+
+2004-09-15  Francois Dumont  <dums@...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_list.c: Modification of the _S_sort implementation, the __carry

+
+	* stlport/config/stl_intel.h: Configuration update for Win32 Intel 8.0 
+	compiler thanks Charlemagne.
+
+2004-09-10  Francois Dumont  <dums@...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_config.h: The new official namespace is now stlp_std. _STL is
+	just an alias. STLPORT macro still contains the STLport std namespace equivalent.
+	Moreover in _STLP_DEBUG mode, which is not binary compatible with the release
+	or debug mode, the namespace is stlpd_std to generate link error rather
+	than runtime crash.
+
+2004-09-09  Francois Dumont  <dums@...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_config.h: _STLP_DONT_USE_NESTED_TCLASS_THROUGHT_TPARAM 
+	renamed to the more intuitive _STLP_DONT_SUPPORT_REBIND_MEMBER_TEMPLATE.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_config.h: Introduction of a new namespace stlp_private
+	defined in the global namespace. Everything that is STLport implementation
+	details should be in this namespace to avoid polution of the std namespace.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_iterator_base.h: Modification of the macro used to create
+	iterator traits for all tree and hashtable based containers to move it in
+	the stlp_private namespace rather than defining it as nested struct, limits
+	the symbol size.
+
+2004-09-08  Francois Dumont  <dums@...>
+
+	* test/unit/fstream_test.cpp: restauration of the test added by Petr
+	the 2004-09-03, it is finaly a different test from the one in sstream_test.cpp.
+	Some more checks have also been integrated.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_ostream.c: New fix of the _M_unbuffured_copy method that was
+	still bugged in case of a throwing output streambuf, detected thanks to the
+	test case.

+	* stlport/stl/_streambuf.h, _streambug.c: Fix an unresolved symbol 
+	problem for MSVC6 (and before?) when STLport is used as a static library.

+	*-shared rules rather than the previous static thanks Michael Fink.
+
+	* test/unit/nmake-evc*.mak: end of build code factorisation, use of 
+	nmake-evc-common.mak within all makefiles thanks Michael Fink.

+	to check the "C" locale on all platforms. Fix of the money_get_put test
+	case for the "C" locale.

+
+2004-09-05  Francois Dumont  <dums@...>

+
+	* stlport/config/stl_wince_4.h: removed, never used, stl_evc.h has been 
+	prefered.
+
+	* test/unit/string_test.cpp: addition of a new test short_string_optim_bug
+	to check for a compiler bugs making the short string optim invalid thanks
+	Michael Fink.
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_evc.h: Deactivation of the short string optimization
+	because of a compiler bug thanks Michael Fink.
+
+	* src/explore: factorisation of the evc build makefiles thanks Michael Fink.
+
+	* src/explore/Makefiles/nmake/lib/clean.mak, macro.mak: Addition of some
+	file clean up for the clobber rule thanks Michael Fink.
+
+2004-09-03  Francois Dumont  <dums@...>
+
+	* test/unit/fstream_test.cpp, sstream_test.cpp: Move of the test for the
+	infinite loop from FstreamTest test case to SstreamTest, addition of some
+	checks.
+
+	* test/unit/full_streambuf.h: streambuf implementation simulating full
+	output.
+
+	* stlport/exception: restauration of some modification removed after the
+	rollback of the 2004-09-01.
+
+	* stlport/config/stl_gcc.h: homogeneification of the coding standard used
+	within STLport, 2 spaces indentations even for preprocessor directives.
+	Doing so, discovered a weird configuration for Mac OS platform (__APPLE__)
+	concerning the _STLP_NATIVE_INCLUDE_PATH macro definition, fixed.
+
+	* stlport/stl/config/stl_*.mak: removal of all references to the 
+	_STLP_REDEFINED_STD macro as it is now the default and only way STLport 
+	use to replace native Standard library.
+
+	* test/unit/nmake-vc-common.mak: add inclusion of the vc_warning_disable.h
+	file to avoid warnings during build process thanks Michael Fink.
+
+2004-09-03  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@Island...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_ostream.c: removed infinite loop in case when outgoing stream
+	can't accept more chars. Thanks Daniel White, Ulrich Eckhardt, Francois Dumont.
+
+	* test/unit/fstream_test.cpp: test for problem above. Thanks Ulrich Eckhardt.
+
+2004-09-02  Francois Dumont  <dums@...>
+
+	* stlport/exception, stlport/stl/_site_config.h, test/unit/exception_test.cpp:
+	Creation of the _STLP_NO_UNEXPECTED_EXCEPT_SUPPORT macro to signal support of
+	the unexpected exception mecanism. Related type/function are only brought to the
+	STLport namespace if correctly supported, exception_test.cpp check that.
+
+	* New modification of the _Rb_tree and _Hashtable associated iterator structs.
+	Removal of the container_type pass through the iterator traits; iterator traits
+	is the type that will make each derived container iterator type real different
+	type making them uncomparable.
+
+	* stlport/ctype.h: rollback of the above rollback ;-) only of course for the 
+	Win CE code fix that was part of the previous commitment.
+
+2004-09-01  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@Island...>
+

+	_STLP_NO_UNCAUGHT_EXCEPT_SUPPORT macro.
+
+	* Modification of the include schema of all public headers in stlport folder
+	that need to be reentrant. Now those files are fully guarded and the specific
+	STLport code is only included once at the end of the inclusion, the reentrancy
+	only concern inclusion of the native headers.

+	for linux systems.
+
+2004-08-19  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@Island...>
+

+
+2004-08-11  Francois Dumont  <dums@...>
+
+	* src/explore/Makefiles/nmake: extension of the new build system for VC.Net
+	2005 (VC8).
+
+	* src/explore/Makefiles/nmake/app: restauration of the default behavior shared
+	rules generates executable using the STLport dynamic library and static rules
+	use the static libraries.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string.h: Add check of _STLP_NO_IOSTREAMS to force inclusion of
+	_string.c in this case.
+

+	before inclusion as the check is already done to include _string.c from _string.h.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_istream.h _istream.c: removal of the _M_put_num function definition
+	from the .h and removal of all the inline implementation of the >> operators.

+	
+	* stlport/stl/_ostream.h _ostream.c, src/ostream.cpp: ditto but for the _M_get_num
+	function.
+	
+	* stlport/stl/_istream.h _istream.c: _M_init_skip and _M_init_noskip are now inline

+
+2004-08-10  Francois Dumont  <dums@...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string.h: add check of the _STLP_EXPOSE_STREAM_IMPLEMENTATION

+	is defined.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string.h, stlport/stl/debug/_string.h, _string_mem_t.h: restoration
+	of the template method specialization for backward compatibility between compilers
+	implementating template method and the most recent one. It is considered as an 
+	STLport extension.
+
+2004-08-09  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@Island...>
+
+	* test/compiler: tests to check whether compiler understand or not some
+	language construction. It is NOT tests for language support libraries,
+	only tests for compiler. The main purposes of this tests is to help
+	for developers to find correct workarounds, if compiler don't understand
+	some language constructions.
+
+2004-08-09  Francois Dumont <dums@...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_limits.h, stlport/config/stl_mycomp.h: introduction of a new macro
+	configuration to signal no support of the IEC 559 specification for floating point

+	
+	* stlport/config/stl_msvc.h: fix of the config to signal no IEC 559 support before
+	Visual C++ .Net even if the infinity value is fine.
+	
+	* test/unit/limits_test.cpp: New test case to check the right numeric_limits class
+	configuration. Do not check the signaling_NaN yet...

+	thanks Oliver Stoeneberg report.
+
+2004-08-05  Francois Dumont <dums@...>

+2004-08-04  Francois Dumont <dums@...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/debug/_list.h, _slist.h: small review of the stlport debug code.
+	Removal of any Standard reference in the slist class debug implementation. Removal
+	of some unjustified iterator invalidation.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_locale.h, _collate.h, src/locale.cpp, locale_catalog.cpp, locale_impl.cpp:
+	Split of the locale class implementation into _LocaleBase base class with no member
+	template methods which is exported and the locale class which is not exported. This
+	is a workaround for the MSVC6 compiler.
+
+2004-08-03  Francois Dumont <dums@...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_iterator.h: Fix of the back_insert_iterator, front_insert_iterator
+	and insert_iterator to make them assignable like specify in the Standard requirements
+	of the output iterators.
+
+	* test/unit/insert_test.cpp, finsert_test.cpp, binsert_test.cpp: Addition of tests for
+	the assignment operators on the output iterators.
+
+2004-08-02  Francois Dumont <dums@...>
+
+	* stlport/stl/_string.h, _string.c, debug/_string.h: split of the basic_string
+	implementation into a class with no member templates and one with the member 
+	templates. Only the one with no member templates is exported. This is a MSVC6
+	bug workaround as this compiler try to look for the class method symbols within
+	the dynamic library even if this symbol is the one of template method which is 
+	not exported. That also make the basic_string implementation more clean so it
+	has been adopted for all compilers.
+
+2004-07-29  Francois Dumont <dums@...>
+
+	* test/unit/locale_test.cpp: Fix bad macro _STLP_NO_EXCEPTIONS spelling 
+	and add of a check for real locale implementation. Patch done by

+
+	* stlport/stl/_deque.h, stlport/stl/_list.h, stlport/stl/_slist.h:

+
+	* src/locale_catalog.cpp: fix of the locale facets registration system.
+	The hash container use string as key rather than char const* so that
+	a copy of the facet name is stored rather than a copy of the string
+	pointer that might be freed. We also extract the complete facet name
+	before storing it to avoid store of facet aliases that cannot be retrieved
+	at release.

+	Define _STLP_NO_FORCE_INSTANTIATE is default now for gcc 3.x.
+
+	* stlport/stl/_streambuf.h: remove specialization of
+	basic_streambuf<char, char_traits<char> >---reference to FILE struct here

+
+	* _slist.h, debug/_slist.h,, dll_main.cpp: remove excess slist redefinitions

+	some conditions this hangs gcc compilers.
+
+	* _config.h, _cwchar.h, _epilog.h, _iterator_base.h, debug/_debug.c: multiple import
+	of _STL namespace into std, as multiple import VENDOR_CSTD namespace into _STL
+	namespace lead to crash of gcc compilers. Import of _STL namespace into std
+	namespace done once in the _config.h, not in _epilog.h.
+
+	* _prolog.h: undef std not required in all cases; instead this is useful only
+	for redefinition of std namespace, and should be done in the _config.h.
+
+	* _epilog.h: include of _config.h has no sense here.
+
+	* _threads.h: wrong import of _STL namespace into global namespace
+
+2004-02-18  Francois Dumont <dums@s...>

+	revise standard iostream and locale initialization, remove worrits about
+	order of static objects initialization as soon as possible; all real
+	initialization situated in the locale_impl.cpp; locale initialization
+	moved to _Locale_impl constructor---locale will be correctly initialized
+	either via direct locale usage, or during standard iostream initialization,
+	as ios_base member. This changes may lead to problems with Digital Mars
+	and Borland compilers---should be checked and fixed.

+	copy thanks Sergey Volk
+
+2004-01-19  Petr Ovtchenkov  <ptr@Island...>

+	code use underlie iterators, not debug wrapper iterators. By the way this
+	approach faster---no excessive checks; solved by Boris Fomitchev.
+
+	* _thread.h, _debug.h: recursive-safe mutex structure removed---not
+	required more; see reason just above.

+
+	* debug/_vector.h: pointer specialization for vector not derived
+	from _Vector_base, so we should avoid references on _Vector_base
+	class members in debug wrapper.
+
+2003-12-22  Francois Dumont  <dums@s...>
+
+	* _string.h: use _STLP_FORCE_STRING_TERMINATION flag to enforce

+	convertible into value type.
+	Thanks Przemek Kuczmierczyk <przemekk834@tlen.pl> for report, test
+	and solution.
+
+	* iterswp0.cpp, iterswp1.cpp, iterswp.cpp, stl_test.cpp,

+	
+The following changes were made in 4.5 beta 7 since 4.1 beta 6 :
+

+	
+	* Macro _STLP_NO_SGI_IOSTREAMS renamed to _STLP_NO_OWN_IOSTREAMS, old references to SGI removed;

+          Otherwise three classes will not be included in the namespace std when #include <typeinfo>.

+	
+The following changes were made in 4.1 beta 4 since 4.1 beta 3 :
+	
+	* Simulation of class partial specialization (thanks to  Mat Marcus and Jesse Jones of Adobe)
+	  used to provide following enhancements :
+	
+	 - type_traits are automatically specialized for all pointer types for all compilers, 
+	   which makes them able to utilize type_traits-based optimizations when dealing with pointer types, 
+	   automatically.
+	
+	 - all functions specialized for pointers and optimized via __type_traits
+	   ( like copy()/copy_backward(), _uninitialized_xx) now enjoy this optimization for all compilers!
+        
+	- generic __value_type()/__difference_type()/__iterator_category() are written so user does not have
+	   to supply any of its own even when partial specialization is not available.
+	   (Note : gcc-2.7 and VC++ 5.x, 6.x have bugs which prevents them from using this enhancement, still)
+	
+	* <iterator> : by default, non-standard iterator query names like 
+	  value_type()/difference_type()/iterator_category() are not used
+	
+	* <algo> : major revision:
+	   - algorithms without explicit Compare() function expressed via the one that has it where possible.
+	     This considerably reduces header size and reduces code bloat for programs which use both flavours of
+	     those algorithms.
+	   - some function bodies moved between  .c and .h 
+	   - all functions used internally moved out to _algobase.h, so no other header includes <_algo.h> anymore
+	   - find() specialized for random access iterators regardless of partial spec.
+
+	* Dynamic libraries (.DLL and .so) : name versioning used to prevent clashes between STLport versions
+
+	* src/ : code regrouped between .cpp files to provide for less executable size with dumb linkers;
+
+	* locale subsystem initialization : startup changed to use statically allocated structures as much as possible;
+	
+	* <stl/_function.h> : basic stuff moved to _function_base.h ; 
+	  other STL headers now include _function_base.h instead
+
+	* _threads.h : MT support for OS/2 added (only tested with VAC++)
+
+	* _stdio_file.h : added support for Solaris in ELF64 mode (thanks to Holger Stasch)
+	
+	* stl/_hashtable.h : [] operator for hash_map optimized to take no more than find() when element is present
+	  (Thanks to Thomas Witt et al.)
+
+	* _ostream.h : fix for default unsigned char (thanks to  Holger Stasch)
+	
+	* all __STL_ABBREVS abbreviations moved aside in _abbrevs.h header.
+
+	* Fujitsu C++ Compiler support added (thanks to  Holger Stasch)
+	
+	* Initial SGI iostreams port to OS/390 introduced (thanks to  Holger Stasch).

+	* __STL_COMPILE_INSTANTIATE hack for DEC removed (thanks to Ralph)
+
+	* __STL_INLINE_STRING_LITERAL_BUG defined for HP aCC ( thanks to Jason Taylor)
+
+	* _bitset.h - member workaround operators made const (thanks to dzwick) 
+
+	* _bitset.h/.c, hashtable.h -- small bugfixes (thanks to Levente Farkas)
+	
+	* <exception> - now includes exception.h if only that is available.
+
+	* vector::assign() inplemented for vector::iterator when member templates are not available (Thanks to dzwick)
+
+	* fstream.cpp : __pioinfo used for MinGW32 (thanks to Danny Smith)
+	
+The following changes were made in 4.1 beta 3 since 4.1 beta 2 :
+
+	* list<>::clear() : protected access bug fixed
+
+	* __STL_MUTEX_INITIALIZER set back to PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER for pthreads case, 
+	  as some platforms (eg AIX) do not treat zero-initialized mutex as valid one (thanks to Alex Vanic, Jack Andrews for help)
+	
+	* stl/_limits.c : fixed typo preventing numeric limits constants to be defined for __STL_LITTLE_ENDIAN,
+	  constants initialization fixed (thanks to Ingo Donasch)  
+
+	* real implementation of locales for Win32 contributed by Anton Lapach (thanks !) merged in.
+	
+	* stl_user_config.h, _config.h : changed default to not define relops:: operators

+
+	* _numeric_facets.c/num_put.cpp : printing of integer do not use sprintf() anymore
+
+	* "install" target implemented for UNIX & VC++ Makefiles. It now installs headers and libraries.
+
+	* "src" : files merged to get less compilation time and less space overhead for imperfect compilers
+
+	* "debug" flavour of STLport excluded from default build and auto-select ; 
+	  please use __STL_USE_DEBUG_LIB and build debug STLport lib explicitly with "make debug_dynamic" 
+	  if you really need it). "all" now builds 2 kinds : "release" and "STLdebug", for static and dynamic builds.  
+
+	* stlport_prefix.h : WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN set for Win32 build of STLport library, for speed.
+
+	* FreeBSD compile fixed; makefiles added.
+
+	* All "__init" changed to "_Init" to fix clashes with DEC conventions (thanks to Holger Stasch)
